Mere Court Hotel

Externally impressive and nice grounds. Rooms were dirty and dusty. We stayed in Chatsworth and the wardrobe and side tables were very dusty, plus all the doors and doorframes needed a solid clean. Found a pair of sunglasses and some other kit underneath the bed from previous occupants. A thorough room clean plus wiping down the walls of curious stains would be good. Bar area - tables need a thorough clean - they are streaky and sticky with cleaning fluid. A pint is £7.50 and it is not lined with gold. Breakfast is served via hot plates and staff are slow to restock the food served so if you want a full English it may take a while. Wouldn’t return here. Nice on the outside but needs a serious deep clean.

The hotel was not very disabled person friendly and no disability car park

On arrival the gentleman that checked us in was very pleasant and helpful, as were the bar and restaurant staff. Honestly they were all just brilliant. We booked an executive room with a lake view, the lake was not in sight, only thing we saw was the bared wire boundary fence. The room was falling to bits, toilet roll holder would not hold a toilet roll, walls had holes in and wall paper missing. At night we were greeted with moths which pestered us most of the night. Room had very little lighting, presumably so you could not fully see the state it was in. No glasses in the room to poor water in to.

Staff lovely and food nice. Room and bed very small. Room could have been cleaner especially window frames a d corners. Bathroom ceiling allowed rainwater to drip through, quite a lot, all night. Only discovered this when I got up in the night and slipped on the wet bathroom floor, banging my head and shoulder. Put a bath towel on the floor but the continual dripping kept me awake. Our friends were also staying and without asking there were no ramps for his wheelchair inside.

Clean, sizeable double room. Decent quality buffet breakfast. Couple of things missing from room - kettle, hairdryer. Slightly towards expensive end for provision delivered (£135 for mid week night). All in a good stay and would use again.

Beuatiful setting

The room was spotless staff lovely breakfast was great hot and continental on offer. Parking free . The rooms look a bit tired and dated but the bed was very comfortable. Shower could be hotter . But not worth complaining about . It was a much needed restful stay . No real complaints

Comfy room and good breakfast. Staff were helpful and friendly and good on site free parking.

The hotel staff were very friendly and helpful, particularly Sam, who seemed to be everywhere, and the hotel grounds were picturesque and well kept. The food at the wedding we attended was excellent. Our room was comfortable and spacious, and the shower worked well and was a good temperature. Our only slight issue was the shower screen, which was not fully watertight, resulting in water on the floor in the bathroom, which needed hand towels to mop up the excess water, We enjoyed our stay.

A pleasant and relaxed stay in this comfortable hotel. Staff very attentive. Good a la carte dinner and substantial breakfast. Quiet surroundings. Shame there wasn't better views of the grounds but that is the layout of the house.

Checked in very late, like 30 minutes into tomorrow late. The guy booked me in and even poured me a Guinness after more than 7 hours traveling. Breakfast was Awesome and Everything was hot but not destroyed. Still had hot Yolk with my Saysage (This simple Something is something some 5 star hotels can’t get right). Random booking, won’t be my last! Thank you Mere Hotel.

A good breakfast cooked to order during the week. Staff very friendly and helpful. Bar inviting well stocked with a good bar menue.

Clean room, food was good and friendly staff

Some bits a bit tired but friendly staff and was a good priced option for staying near the airport. Chips in the restaurant were class!

Cold room. Had to turn radiator on. Arrived late and was not welcoming. Got straight into bed.

Lovely hotel and excellent breakfast - highly recommend!

Lovely grounds and fine old buildings. Friendly staff, breakfast was fine. Our Suite was spacious and great bathroom, comfy bed.

Friendly staff! Room was warm when we came in which is lovely! Clean and cosy!

A nice little find when the hotels were full in Manchester due to Oasis gig! Nice king size bed and a dark room with good curtains to block out light. Room has everything you need. Parking is on site, free and ample. The grounds are beautiful too, which I saw more of next day and spent some time before setting off on my journey. Room was traditional but needs some attention, broken lamp, television not tuned in. Good tea tray with glass bottled water (sustainable) and Border biscuits! Comfortable stay and would stay again!

Properties in a beautiful setting, but the rooms themselves are very tired and dated and needs upgrading asap
