Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is situated in a stunning location overlooking the moors and Castleshaw reservoirs, perfect for those who enjoy daily exercise and serene surroundings. The rooms, though spacious with separate living areas, were a bit dated and lacked basic amenities like a kettle. The service was exceptional, with extremely professional and friendly staff. The dining experience, while offering good quality food with a relaxed self-service style, was deemed a bit overpriced for the limited breakfast options. The overall value for money was mixed due to the high dining costs. Facilities were satisfactory, catering to essential needs for a comfortable stay.
The hotel is located in a stunning area, tucked against a wooded ridge and facing across to the Pennine Way ridgeline, offering a beautiful setting. The rooms in the main building are comfortable but come with a higher price tag. The service is exceptional, with a particular shoutout to Anthony, the owner, for his pleasant and friendly demeanor. The dining experience, however, had some hiccups with the staff feeling inconvenienced by specific requests. Overall, the location and surroundings are breathtaking, making it a remarkable place to stay with some minor drawbacks.
My stay at the hotel was quite pleasant, with its generous and beautiful rooms, although I felt the price was slightly higher than expected. The service was top-notch, especially accommodating my late check-in. The location was ideal and spacious, but unfortunately overshadowed by one staff member's negative attitude. The dining experience did not meet my expectations in terms of variety and quality. Overall, a mixed but decent experience.
