Room ok and comfortable. Little bit dated. Reception isnt manned so you have to find someone in the bar. Not enough places to just sit and have a drink. The hotel is local to us when visiting family otherwise we wouldnt choose a hotel with so many dogs. Even allowing dogs in the breakfast room. 'Restaurant' is more of a bar area.

I’d rate the Fox and Hounds 10 out of 10.

For the price paid I’d rate this place excellent. Great location, plenty of free parking and very friendly and helpful staff. Also first class breakfast.

Friendly welcoming hotel

The service and meals were excellent. The hotel has a comfortable atmosphere. If I were to make a criticism it would be that the rooms could do with updating.

It was pet friendly with lovely dogs who were all well controlled. However, the main purpose of a hotel it to sleep and the room was so poorly sound insulated that we were hardly able to sleep the first night due to the "buzz saw" snoring in the room next door. The next night different visitors were still clearly audible through the walls snoring but it was not as bad - so even normal snoring is clearly audible through the walls. The cozy room was indeed "cozy", but the old metal framed bed was very creaky, so easy to disturb your partner.

Unknown to me it has become a hotel to take dogs to. Dogs barking, corridor smelt of dogs. At breakfast up to 12 dogs in the restaurant. Even one owner feeding biscuits to a dog in the restaurant. Dogs allowed long lead in restaurant which I nearly tripped over. Not for anyone who does not have a dog.

The staff were very friendly. The bedroom decoration needed updating, we found the mattress uncomfortable. The walls were very thin, we could hear snoring from either side of us, plus talking etc. It would have been nice to have some fresh fruit available for breakfast.

Great location but room for improvment

The location was very good and convenient for a local family wedding. The restaurant food was excellent and the staff very friendly. Our bathroom net/curtain had a considerable amount of mold but in general the room was clean, if a little dated. The breakfast service on our last day was very poor with a very long wait for food and a lack of resources to handle the amount of guests.

Anniversary break

From the beginning to the end of our stay the staff team were superb. Nothing was too much trouble and every requirement we had was met. We atè in the restaurant 2 evenings and the foid & service was excellent. My steak on both occasions was very tender. The grounds were well maintained and were nice to walk around. The only let down was the pond nearest the hotel that seemed to be overflowing and making the nearby ground a quagmire. We hope to stay again in the future as we both thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Good and bad

The hotel staff are all friendly and welcoming. Food was to a very high standard. Parkland also excellent and ideal for a doggy. The rooms were tired and dated and the walls were paper thin. We spent all night listening to next door snoring and moving around on their bed. We must of only had an hours sleep so not ideal.
