Summer Lodge Country House Hotel

Absolutely amazing. Always wanting to help and the food was second to none

Absolutely first class. The house and gardens were lovely and the staff excellent.

We had a wonderful weekend getaway. The staff were extremely helpful and friendly without being overbearing. The setting was beautiful, the food was excellent, the village was lovely and the local pub was also great.

Grounds of house lovely and rooms were really nice, clean and very comfortable.

What a delightful, comfortable and relaxing stay. Arrived to an upgrade. The service was possibly the best we’ve experienced to date. Incredibly attentive and efficient. Room was beautiful, bed soft and lovely. Can’t wait to return. Village is idle for a weekend of walking, lovely pub a few meters down the road. Would highly recommend.

The Spa was wonderful and the breakfast staff were fabulous. Our bathroom was badly designed however and you had to sit at an angle because space was tight and on top of the heated towel rail. There were also wall to wall mirrors which is a bit disconcerting when sitting on the loo or trying to avoid your own image!!

Well run hotel. Quaint and dated but very much in keeping with its surroundings. The hotel’s charm and USP relies on the personal touch and this is done exceptionally well. Beautiful grounds, very well maintained. Breakfast was excellent as was afternoon tea. Well stocked bar with a multitude of whiskies and malts. What really stood out was the diligence of all the staff and their attentive yet unobtrusive service. Breakfasts when busy was a little slow but to be honest there was no need to rush. Thanks to all the staff for a lovely weekend.

Set in beautiful gardens, in a picturesque village, and exuding relaxation and enjoyment from every brick! The room (we took advantage of a cancellation so had the most expensive suite) was sumptuous. The service was attentive without being overbearing, and expert. Fabulous facilities - the spa worth a mention, and the huge range of drinks at the bar.... Only VERY slight letdown was the evening meal. We dined at the hotel, and chose from an impressive menu. When it arrived it was a little....'nouvelle cuisine' - small portions artistically presented. Something that Mossiman pioneered and I'd hoped had disappeared..... To be frank after a hard day and a long drive we needed something a little heartier. Wine was excellent, sommelier was expert. Breakfast served in the conservatory was pretty good - maybe the buffet was a little sparse but this may have been down to the number of guests staying, some of the items didn't seem to be available. My smoked salmon on sourgough was a little sparse - one egg, small dollop of smashed avocado going brown at the edges, one small slice of salmon, one small slice of bread. My partner did better with a heartier Eggs Benedict, and certainly those who plumped for full English seemed well served. Overall though, a memorable stay, relaxing, and YES, I would go back....!

Wonderful hotel, restaurant, spa. Great service, location, gardens, spa.

Beautiful hotel. Service was fantastic, staff very helpful and friendly and could not do enough for you. The only criticism I would have is that the pool seemed to have quite a few flies in it. Overall our stay was relaxing and the setting was stunning, a real hidden gem.
