Moonfleet Manor Hotel

Very good breakfast, buffet style for continental breakfast and order a cooked breakfast.

The pool was closed and only opened for few hours for our last day. Also it closed at 6:00pm rather than 8:00pm as advertised. It would be great if they could provide boat access to Chesil beach from the hotel as you need to drive to the near town.

A really brilliant family friendly hotel - loads to do for kids and a really special stay. The play barn is fantastic and my little boys really enjoyed the pool. Our beds were comfy and the shower was fantastic. Loads of things to do in the local area.

Generally the staff were fantastic, a lot of younger members of the team who seem really switched on and understanding of how children act. However, my partner had a last minute meeting put into the diary and that meant it was going to be a push to check out for 11am. I asked the lady at reception if we could leave at 11:30 - she asked for our room names and she felt the need to curtly correct the way that I said "Clement". I can move on from that however then she states that they would not be able to accommodate an extra 30 mins unless they charge me? So having paid £450 for one night and spent an extra £220 on food & drinks at the hotel, they cannot accommodate an extra 30 minutes? Understandable if this is hotel policy - but I do wonder if the matron attitude is also hotel policy? On check out, I did highlight that there was grit in the bed sheets from previous guests when it came to us going to bed. Darren who checked me out was apologetic and lovely.

Most of the staff were excellent! Reese, Dana, Karen and Darren in particular. The location can’t be any better.

The food was largely ok. If you’re staying for a week, the menu doesn’t change so it gets repetitive quickly. Our room was excellent. The grounds, lounges and restaurant are nice but some parts of the hotel have aged badly. If the walkways to the amenities; games room, spa, pool, weren’t painted a nice colour, they would’ve been quite bad. Crazy golf should be taken down and rebuilt.

A child friendly hotel, where children are the heart.

All food was excellent - we loved it. Great for the dog

Slightly unusual furnishings , but delightful - all high standard. Food excellent . Staff very pleasant and helpful. The One thing that lets the hotel down is the very badly potholed road to approach the hotel. Don't know who is responsible but the road condition is dire.

As above , road condition. Otherwise , very pleasant for a family hotel.

Location is magical and it is high end location and accomodation. Room in the main house was incredibly spacious, well decorated, comfortable, and amazing views. Bathroom was huge with luxurious facilities. Food was first class. Easy walks on coastal path by lagoon. So quiet and relaxing location.

Leaving for home was the worst thing. Swimming pool only having one 'adult only hour' per day at 7am. Local families use the pool after school ? Busy for children. Good for people with children of course. Entrance road is not good for low cars so you are warned to be careful.
