This place is perfect for families! The grounds are lovely, with a small play area and chickens. the complimentary glass of wine on arrival was a nice touch.

Had a lovely time with a comfy bed and an amazing ambiance that made me feel right at home. The heated swimming pool and the beautiful garden area were perfect spots to unwind. Just had a small hiccup with the restaurant service, but it didn’t ruin my stay at all! 😊

Would be happy to recommend for a weekend respite

Friendly staff, welcoming atmosphere, which made my family with children feel right at home, complemented by convenient access to a lovely outdoor swimming pool for relaxation after exploring the area, and being just a 15-minute taxi ride from the train station made our stay even easier.

All was good.

the location is great, near rutland water which is super nice. the staff were really friendly and helpful, especially in the dining room. our classic room was clean and had everything we needed. breakfast was delish, loved the quality of food and drink. comfy bed made our night stay good!

Great food with a few hiccups

Had a one night stopover while traveling, and the room was clean and comfy. The breakfast was top-notch, and the conservatory setting for dining was cozy. The king prawns starter was a highlight, but my chicken schnitzel was really overcooked and tough.

this place is super pretty with a nice courtyard for chillin in the sun. our classic room was really comfy and had some cool extra touches like free water and biscuits. the breakfast in the conservatory dining room was very good and overall, the vibe is relaxing and welcoming.

but we had to deal with some slow service during dinner, and the prices for food were kinda high for what we got.

The stay was fantastic. The room had quality amenities, and my family loved the play area. We enjoyed the delicious food and the lovely courtyard for relaxation. The location was peaceful with beautiful views. We would love to return soon! 🍃

Lovely dog-friendly spot! The food was a delight, especially the breakfast. Comfy, spacious rooms made it cozy for the whole family.

I did wrestle with the vacuum cleaner in my room—clearly it had taken a sabbatical before my arrival!

Exceptional staff went above and beyond to provide excellent service, making us feel truly valued. The dining experience was lovely, highlighted by freshly made sandwiches that were delicious. the room had a few drawbacks. the bed was uncomfortable, the bathroom lacked sufficient soap, and there was no toilet paper replacement. Despite these issues, overall, we enjoyed an excellent stay with beautiful views and attentive service.

The Barnsdale provided a comfortable stay with a spacious room that included thoughtful amenities, such as a complimentary bottle of ginger liquor and high-quality tea and coffee options. The continental breakfast was well-presented, offering a variety of choices that catered to different tastes. the staff were generally friendly and accommodating.

Housekeeping lacked attention to detail.

nice room but small bathroom

I appreciated the lovely room, which was very clean and warm. The great shower and thoughtful touches, like drinks and cookies, enhanced my stay significantly.

The bathroom felt a bit cramped, which was surprising given the overall spaciousness of the room.

The hotel's charming courtyard and lovely gardens made it a delightful haven for relaxation and socializing, especially with easy access for seniors to navigate the beautiful surroundings and enjoy afternoon tea.

Improve staff responsiveness and service speed.

an enchanting stay with beautiful grounds and warm welcomes from friendly staff who ensure you feel at home

Wonderful ambiance and attentive staff.

Had a wonderful stay! The food was absolutely delicious, particularly the breakfast, and the evening meals were reasonably priced too. The comfortable family room made all the difference!
