Not the best experience, all things considered. We got locked inside the hotel for 25 mins one morning, between two auto locking doors, for which our key card didn't work. We tried ringing the hotel to no avail. That aside, The rooms are quite small, but nice and cosy, everything works. The building is old and well kept. Breakfast finished at 9am so we never made it there, despite paying for it in advance.
I broke down on the A1 with my wife and two children late at night. We weren't able to be recovered so had to get in somewhere to overnight. I rang several hotels with no luck, but managed to get through to the Hop Pole and they fortunately had a family room (with a cot) available. I can't thank them enough for turning a pretty disastrous night into a really pleasant stay. It's a beautiful old building with period features as well as mod-cons. The rooms are spotless, cosy and quiet. There's free parking outside and across the road. The shower had great pressure and everything you'd expect in the bathroom was provided. The next morning our cooked breakfast was spot on, and there was also a good selection of cereals. I had to hang around all day for the recovery vehicle and the landlady was so generous, offering me cups of tea whilst insisting I was no trouble, allowing me to work in a quiet room as I waited. Top notch all over, I would 100% recommend to others and it was very reasonably priced. Thanks to the team at the Hop Pole it was a positive experience and I would definitely stay again.
Absolutely beautiful building and kept to an extremely high standard of cleanliness at all times. The managers and staff are the most polite and warming people I’ve ever came across in the industry. Every time we have visited Our meals have been amazing and the service was great. Definitely will be coming back to the Hop Pole with out a doubt.
Absolutely beautiful place. The bar area is very welcoming and can imagine even more so in the winter when a nice log fire is lit. We went on a Saturday evening and was welcomed at the bar from a friendly landlord and landlady. When our food was ready we was escort to what can only be discribed as an amazing dining Room I had the hunters chicken which was served very well and made a change to get chicken that wasn't dry it was absolutely beautiful. My wife had the steak and ale pie which she said yet again was absolutely lovely. Will we go again absolutely we are even considering staying the night next time in one of their beautiful rooms
Rooms are of a really good size and beds are comfortable. Staff are friendly too. Breakfast portion on the Choose your own option was a little small, but other than that I can't fault it. The shower holder in our room wasn't the right one for the shower head so drenched most of the bathroom, but easily rectified
