The Talbot Hotel, Oundle, Northamptonshire

From start to finish of our visit we were totally happy with all aspects of the stay and will certainly return.

Amazing place. The entire hotel is spotless and the staff went out of their way to greet us and help us. We genuinely felt welcome here. The buildings are beautiful.

What a great hotel. Very old buildings kept as they should be. Quirky with plenty of history. Breakfast choices were good and the service excellent.

A very good place

Thoroughly impressive hotel & in a simply stunning area, warm friendly welcome at reception checking in, upon entry into my room, a DAB radio was softly playing Classic FM in the background, even as a tattooed shaven headed man, I love Classic FM & really appreciated the touch, especially after a stressful end to my day prior to check in, I led on the bed & chilled, listening to it for an hour before dining in the restaurant, thank you ! The meal was gorgeous, superbly presented but the desert…OMG ! The Blueberry sponge with lemon sauce & sorbet !!! I could have eaten more of that, left the tastebuds tingling ! It was worth every penny & more (hence the overpayment 😉) the waiting staff were exceptional too, everything in this stop just worked superbly & was a credit to the management in providing such excellence, but, please, get some Drambuie in, I just love a Drambuie Coffee after dining ! I will certainly return !

Beautiful hotel, in a beautiful area, food good

This place is a dream. The small town of Oundle is just lovely. Taken back to 400 years ago and the Talbot inn is extraordinary. From the rooms to the food, to the amazing staff and welcome, we fell in love with it from the first second. Our fave was Alisha our waitress. She was also delightful.

Speechless!!! And that's not normal for me but I will give it a go ! Lol .... The Talbot Hotel is truly an amazing place to stay, if you are history nut such as myself the hotel is rich with history as is Peterborough itself, the staff go above and beyond to help any way they can to make your stay comfortable and stress free! ... Myself and my partner resided in the Burleigh Suite (103) ... The moment we entered the room it was just .... Wow !, the furnishings...of course the four poster bed too, we loved the bathroom too ... And loved the radio which we made a lot of use of 😊 all food was lovely and cooked to perfection Paul was a huge fan of The Talbot Burger 🍔 😁he also loved his breakfasts, I'm just not a big eater more of a grazer so unfortunately I never really ate much but all food looked delicious. Other guests were friendly and it was great to meet new people, even just local drinkers especially the couple with their cute little dog Milo (pic will follow as with many more!) also a local drinkers with his two retrievers Jasper and Piper 😊 would alo like to give a shout out to bar staff Andrew and the crew who couldn't do enough, especially Andrew who showed me some cards he acquired off eBay regarding the hotel, much appreciated 👍 ... This was a birthday treat for myself and a well need break for us both WE SHALL RETURN!! We love everything and everyone here, and to leave this morning, we was very sad to go !. But until next time, much love all and thank you ❤️

Clean and tidy. Great location

Everything about this hotel was stellar. The room, gardens, restaurant, staff, and location were absolutely outstanding. I absolutely plan to return. Not a negative, but to be informative, I am 6’3”, and most historic structures were designed for much shorter people. That said, I only had to duck my head a couple of times. It will not impact in any way my decision to return. Couldn’t have been happier.
