To be fair, all of it. Sarah and Hayley on reception were amazing - I managed to enter the wrong expiry on my card when booking and had several calls from them, was worried the booking might get cancelled but they were just simply fab. Breakfast with Chaz was to die for. We travel a lot, and breakfast is always something we look at; we never eat what we plan to, but it's a great indicator of a great hotel - yours was awesome. Love the fact that its entrenched in history but you are in the process of modernizing it sympathetically.

Not sure there was anything.......

The staff were friendly and very polite and helpful. The food was limited choice but tasted very gd . The room was very tight and small . Lack of air into room made breathing difficult and uncomfortable. Bed was clean and comfortable. except for the shower room was absolutely awful needed a gd scrub clean from mould shower door very stiff n stuck toilet was extremely low. Not suitable with mobility issues for 2 adults.

The shower / bathroom toilet too low caused back issues and shower was filthy of mould etc

Parking was very easy. The whole place had a cosy feel about it and the staff were extremely friendly and helpful! All very clean, tidy and warm in the main building. Lots of choice at breakfast and a very cosy reading room - a good idea!

The room mix up upon arrival after a long drive, but the matter was dealt with within minutes and luckily we could change rooms. There is a strange smell in the top floor rooms, we couldn't work out what it was but we soon got used to it. Chocolate parfait in the orangery was a disappointment. It was just like an over priced choc ice. It might have been good to advertise the local highlights for tourists. For example, the sculpture trail could have been advertised as within walking distance as we left The Speech House and drove to the trail walking site, only to realise that part of the walk actually passed The Speech House so we could have walked from there instead!

The hotel was genuinely dog-friendly rather than just dog-accommodating and the staff were attentive and very friendly. The room was well appointed and size-wise good for a solo traveller (with dog). There were plenty of places to exercise my dog for toilet breaks and a lovely field at the back which we would have enjoyed if the weather hadn't been quite so wet. I would definitely stay at Speech House again and recommend it to friends travelling to the area.

For me, the room was a little too warm and the wifi/mobile reception was very patchy outside of the main building, but both aspects were manageable for a short stay.

The food was excellent, so we took all our meals in the orangery. Speech House was well located for our walking holiday, and the staff were friendly and very helpful. Our attic bedrooms were spacious and well furnished, and the beds very found to be comfortable. and of a generous size.

The facilities are somewhat limited at this hotel., so in bad weather there would be little to do in the hotel itself, although there is a good bar and two choices of eating venues. The floorboards in the attic were somewhat creaky, with the sound transferring to adjacent rooms, which is not a problem unless your neighbour has to get up very early in the morning, which is what happened to me on one occasion.

The property was gorgeous and had so much character. We stayed in the courtyard room as was travelling with our dog. Our beds and room were comfortable, clean light and perfect for what we needed. The staff were so friendly welcoming and helpful. We had an evening dinner in the restaurant overlooking the garden which was lovely. Breakfast was fabulous also.

I honestly could not fault it. I only wish we could have stayed longer. I wasn’t too familiar with the area but a short drive from attractions.

Excellent breakfast food in the bar was very good and good value for money

I booked the room on behalf of a friend, so I can only give feed back on account of their experience reported to me. This friend was booked to arrive later than the main party, and a last minute request was made to also accommodate his wife. The hotel duly accommodated this request and also provided a room more suitable for two people sharing, and both guests were delighted with the efforts made by the hotel in sorting this request, and to the room that was given to them.

No problems reported by the couple booked for this room, who were part of our walking group.

All of the meals I had were of a very good quality and I was impressed with presentation. The staff were always friendly and helpful and I felt safe and comfortable with everyone.

My room was good sized with its own roomy shower room. It had the facilities I would need but I had an observation that I mentioned through conversation later at dinner to a staff member. Before my meal was over I had been advised that another room had been sourced for me in the main house and that someone would come to help me move my luggage. I was very impressed with the quick action no fuss way I was treated with and the next room was excellent. Thank you.

Location, check in, cleanliness and breakfast where all sublime. Our second stay at The Speech House and it did not let us down.

Nothing to fault really. Had no issues with the Hotel or the staff, all brilliant. Cosy Courtyard room we had this stay was indeed cosy(small). One slight minor niggle was the lack of plug sockets and flat surface area spaces to put things on. Had to unplug one device. i.e. kettle or TV to plug in another, laptop or put phones on charge. Obviously both due to room size constraints.
