Nice time overall. Disappointed there was no hot water Saturday night & that we didn’t get robes as stated we would in the deluxe rooms. Also toiletries very sparse had to ask for soap. Was thankful we upgraded the room for our parents as their room was lovely. Fabulous view. Staff were delightful but think they could do with more as not enough of them to provide the service you would expect ( isn’t their fault just not enough of them) Breakfast was lovely and we were very grateful for the later checkout.

The hotel has an excellent location but is really tired and dated. The hot water didn't work one day (was fixed quite quickly) and the normal pressure was just terrible in the shower. Just don't think it has had much money spent on it so feels really tired but is a beautiful old building and bet the outside space in the summar is amazing! They defaut "don't clean" for rooms so you do have to ask, which is no problem as we asked and they cleaned just doesn't feel the kind of standard you would expect for the hotel. Breakfast seemed pretty chaotic on some days. Staff were mega friendly.

I’ve stayed here many times before and was sadly disappointed this time. On arrival the receptionist was offhand verging on rude. There was a kettle in my room but no base with a plug. No shower gel in the bathroom and no hot water this morning. My room was near a generator (I realise this is just bad luck of course) so I got very little sleep. Overall the experience was very below par I’m afraid….

This time of the year having the large windows open to let in the fresh air was delightful

room wasn't cleaned properly, exterior of hotel was starting to look shabby, the evening meal was a disaster Staff tried hard but got the impression management was cutting corners. We stayed there 15 years ago and it was great but now, no never again

The room was very comfortable, although there was some noise from the external fans on the flat roof. Breakfast was good with a wide choice. The site is excellent and nearly all the staff was welcoming and smiling.

Hotel overall felt neglected, in need of some maintenance and better upkeep. All staff were very helpful and lovely.

The hotel is looking 'tired'. Shower door was smeared, Had a power cut during the evening and the staff were very busy. 20 minutes to be served at the bar. Overall pleasant but no where near as good as it used to be.

Stayed in a very spacious suite. Nice bed, tv in bathroom but couldn’t get it to work….tight on toiletries, one mini shower gel is not enough for 2 people. Supper in restaurant was good. Breakfast was ok but really grating was full English was included in b&b rate but if you wanted avocado on toast a £6 supplement as was smoked salmon and and scrambled egg as was 2 more items…..only had cheap white bread for toast. Continental selection was poor. Staff tried hard but understaffed especially in the bar in the evening. Hotel is in a beautiful setting and close to walk to high street where there’s some good shops.

Our one night stay at the Compleat Angler was lovely. While the building and room could do with a bit of an update, the overall experience was lovely. The staff were friendly; the room was spacious with a very comfy bed; and the amenities were excellent.

Welcoming reception . Pleasant staff. Beautiful room . Luke warm rather than hot water bath . Very slow service for food - one salad sent back . Enjoyed our stay but can see the hotel might need some tlc soon. Beautifully clean though.
