no heating no hot water, no one at reception for check in

Nice room, but no aircon. There was a ceiling fan directly above the bed - but the room was stuffy and hot. Didn't want to sleep in a ground floor room with patio doors open. In the middle of summer, wouldn't expect to have a 10.5 tog quilt on the bed.

No AC meant a stuffy and musty room

Hollies is a hidden gem tucked away in a small village, great rooms and friendly and helpful staff

Stayed in a cottage as hotel rooms were not available. Very spacious and nice property, maybe a bit cold on arrival as heating system wasn't on the previous days. I would stay here again.

Love The Hollies for it’s quiet location. Management and staff very attentive

arrival was like boarding the Marie Celeste. there was nobody at Reception. In fact, there was nobody at the hotel at all. I was greeted by a sheet of A4 on the wall in reception with my name on. It was a letter telling me that there was nobody on site and where I could find my room and that my room key was in the room. It was a seriously weird. The hotel dining room was not open so I made the rest of it and went out and bought some wonderful pizzas locally. My room, which was a suite was very comfortable and I had a good night's sleep. breakfast wasn't terribly dramatic. there was plenty of choice And the food and drink was of high standard.

Just the job! Room nice, staff obliging and good food! See you again.

Very nice small hotel in a charming English village. We ate at the restaurant both night we were there. The food was very good.

All staff were exceptional, all very friendly & so welcoming from start to finish . Its a very well run hotel which is clean and the rooms has everything you need, I would definitely go back & thoroughly recommend. Thanks Hollies Hotel we has the perfect weekend staying with you.

Although the staff were pleasant and it was clean and tidy. This hotel is very dated and could do with a refurbishment. The gym was very basic and had carpet and no floor space to do any workouts there. Nice food in the restaurant and attentive waiting and bar staff

Beautiful views, lovely restaurant, cleanliness and helpful, friendly staff.

Nice little hotel, rooms are in a fairly modern building behind the main building. Ample parking, extensive menu, good food, great service

Nice room, spacious, comfy bed, very clean including bathroom. Blissfully quiet at night. Good breakfast selection with prompt delivery of cooked food after choosing from menu. Would recommend. Many National Trust visits within striking distance.

Highly recommended! I will definitely return.

Really friendly staff at all areas,reception , dining and in house service. It was clean and meals were excellent. Would use hotel again

Excellent pub and amendities. I would come back again.

Staff were very helpful when I discovered I had booked my room for the wrong month! Fortunately they had space and dealt with all the alterations with Hotels.com. Bar and restaurant staff friendly and helpful. A good room, good dinner, a beer and EV charging…everything I needed.

Nice looking well kept hotel in nice surroundings. Room was comfortable and nice central courtyard view. Staff were friendly and welcoming. I would say that there is room for improvement though, especially as the price we paid for one night wasn’t cheap. The shower temp and pressure wasn’t the best and there was only one towel and shower gel - we raised this and the manager explained that rooms were made up for one person as standard. My main disappointments and where I think the hotel can do better were the lack of complimentary water in the room (cans were in the mini bar for £2.70!) and also the breakfast. The fruit and cereal offering wasn’t great and I am sure some of the help yourself offerings were from a well known budget supermarket. The full English was ok but one of everything and again I feel budget ingredients were used for some items. Never worth £15. My wife also had some toast for which we were charged £10! She was also disappointed with the lack of dairy free alternatives on offer so wasn’t even able to have a coffee with the extremely expensive toast. I feel that we would potentially stay here again but only if these points were addressed. For the price we paid I would have expected more.
