Guest Reviews
- Tim (8/5): - Lovely reception and excellent room. Free parking and choices in the village to eat. Shower tap needed attention but apart from that a nice place to stay
- Roderick (8/5): - Nice hotel, good mexican restaurant. Nice place to relax
- Paul (8/5): - Very friendly staff, food in the restaurant was very good, rooms were clean and bright.
- Ariff (8/5): Northover hotel - A pleasant hotel in the countryside village location plenty on site parking. Friendly staff good all round accommodation.
- Linzi (10/5): - Nice room in a pleasant courtyard. Clean throughout and a very comfortable bed. Reasonable price and quick, no fuss chek in and out by friendly staff
- Edward A (10/5): - Lovely staff and a seamless registration process. I felt very comfortable throughout my stay. It was nice, and unusual, to have enough tea, coffee and milk in the room to avoid the embarrassment of asking for more!
- Suprabha (10/5): - Perfect !!
- Diana (10/5): - Lovely friendly staff nice location
- Annette (8/5): A little disappointed - Convenient for the Haynes Museum and The Air museum. The rooms not as nice as we expected. Very dark and dated. The toilet was loose on the floor and there was no hot water in the sink, our room didn’t have curtains but shutters which meant if you made it private you couldn’t have any fresh air and it was very hot! Breakfast was okay. Beautiful wisteria growing in the courtyard
- Jill (10/5): - An excellent hotel for a one night stay The restaurant was good but breakfast understandably wasn’t available at 7.00am on a Sunday (I could have had cereal and toast) . This didn’t impact on giving an exellent rating
- David (10/5): - Lovely country cottage feel about the place
- Keith (10/5): - Nice clean room with functional bathroom. Good food although there was a function on the night I stayed which meant having to adjust my dining time a little earlier than I would have chosen.
- Lucy (10/5): - Nice friendly family hotel…
- Christopher (10/5): Great place to stay - Great property, staff and room. Only issues were the 2 single beds put together as a double and road noise. Also suggest better ventilation and insulation around wooden double glazed windows.
- Mr Terry (10/5): - Nothing to dislike, everything was fine
- steph (10/5): - I visited here for my girlfriend’s birthday they even left a card and chocolate outside the room. It was just a really amazing stay. Safe clean and quiet Would definitely revisit in the near future
- Andrew (8/5): - Second visit to the hotel. Quiet location with easy parking and only a short drive to most amenities. Staff very friendly
- Rosy (8/5): Good - Lovely friendly staff, definitely makes the difference. Restaurant area not very atmospheric but food was good. Room was standard. Bed was cosy. Liked the view out the window.
- Matthew (10/5): - .
- Mark (10/5): - Random internet search found this place while we were between homes. Everybody in the hotel was so friendly and this made the stay really enjoyable. We arrived fairly late in the afternoon and were tired so did not want to go out for food and we were so pleased we didn’t as the restaurant food food was absolutely great. Home cooked with a great selection. We would very happily stay again.
- Peter (10/5): Friendly hotel - Ideal location, superb friendly staff, will stop again
- stefano (6/5): - Room small bathroom was a cubicle noisy room
- KENNETH (8/5): Comfortable Stay - Had an enjoyable stay, the room was a little smaller than anticipated with not a great view onto a roof! Had booked for the restaurant but the menu wasn't particularly exciting & the dining not very inviting so cancelled the reservation & ate elsewhere. That apart it was a comfortable & convenient stay.
- Dawn (10/5): Lovely hotel - Our room was very comfortable and exceptionally clean. The owner and staff were friendly and helpful, nothing too much trouble. We had breakfast and dinner and the food was delicious. Would stay again.
- Alyson (10/5): - Very nice hotel. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The food was excellent. Overall a very pleasant stay.
- Keith (10/5): - Comfortable, quiet and well equipped room. Nice dining facilities. Spacious car park. Lengthy checkout after I pointed out that dinner had not been included!
- Christopher Lee (8/5): - Nice hotel and friendly staff, Would stay here again
- Neil (10/5): - The hotel was well positioned and parking was plentiful. Staff very polite and helpful, room very clean and spacious. Bar area very pleasant as was the dining area. Breakfast was fresh and good quality. Overall a very pleasant stay and will be visiting again.
- Verified traveler (6/5): It's a nice hotel, not a great hotel. - This is a nice hotel but could do with some modernisation. Areas of the hotel are part of a much older building and as such, the room I was given had a low door height. Luckily I am only 5'8" and only had to dip my head to get into the room. This could easily be awkward for much taller people and nothing was said when I checked in. The room was ok, quite basic and clean but they really need to open their eyes and remove the cobwebs and spiders from the corners of the room. The cobweb in the bathroom had a lovely big dead fly in it. Being an old property, the floor wasn't 100% flat which in turn put the bed on an angle. Not that big a deal but a couple of spacers to level it out would have prevented me from at an angle across the bed. Good job I was on my own. As I say, it's a nice hotel but not what I would expect for the money that are charging. The food menu and drinks selection were both quite limited and breakfast was ok.
- Verified traveler (8/5): One night stopover - Just one night to visit family. Room was adequate. Was somewhat dusty and I wiped the nightstand as it had marks on it. Bathroom and room were a little tired and the flooring wasn’t particularly nice. But the price was good and it served a purpose. Staff very friendly.
- Jo (10/5): - A very nice hotel, with good service and friendly staff. Would definitely return. Facilities were excellent for the price.
- Laura (10/5): - I stayed at the Northover Manor with some colleagues as we were on a weekend job. The hotel was very tidy and clean, well maintained, and in a lovely quiet village. They served a very nice dinner on Saturday evening, and their function room and grounds were pretty and well maintained. I could see it being a very comfortable place for a wedding or family reunion, or even an office retreat.
- Maxine (8/5): - Thoughtful welcoming hosts. Beautiful property with lots of parking. My only even better if is a desk fan to help circulate the air during hot weather.
- Michael (6/5): - It’s a lovely little hotel with amazing surroundings and a lovely village staff were good although bar not open much and facilities didn’t seem manned. What I can say though is breakfast should be included and it is not worth £12.50 it’s ok I think £7/&8 max is adequate for the portion and offering.
- Edwina (6/5): - The entrance to reception needed tidying up, the room was clean and the garden was nice. Breakfast was good quality but for the price I think more should be offered when someone does not like beans and tomatoes, as 1 slice of bacon and 1 sausage and egg makes it a pricey breakfast. The receptionist when we arrived did not give a good impression, a smile costs nothing and a hole in her clothing was not what I expect to see in a receptionist. The following morning I was pleasantly surprised as the lady serving the food was jolly, on checkout the lady on reception could not have been more different to the previous evening and I left with a much more positive view of the hotel.
- John (8/5): - Disappointed with the bathroom as the extractor fan didn’t work, the shower controls were extremely stiff and there must have been something wrong with the electrics as two of the three lights went off and on at will and the third started flickering after 5 minutes. Bedroom was fine apart from the uneven floor which was hidden be the carpet.
- Catherine (10/5): - Lovely hotel with friendly staff and great service. Food options were great. Great location with stunning views! Room very clean and very comfortable bed.
- Stephen (8/5): - Stopped dinner at 8 which was early had to eat elsewhere
- Alicia (10/5): - Staff were really friendly and accommodating. Really good size room and bathroom. Beautiful old building with character with everything you need for a really comfortable stay.
- Steve (10/5): - An excellent place to stay. the restaurant was fantastic as well as the room
- stefano (10/5): - Friendly owner and staff warm reception and pleasant chats
- Gareth (8/5): - Lovely hotel, great food, needs to turn heating off in rooms
- Matthew (8/5): Good location, great food! - On arrival the receptionist was polite and friendly, cannot fault her. The room was comfortable and clean but could have done with a few more tea bags instead of two of each option. The wifi was strong and quick which was good as my phone signal was not the best. The evening meal was amazing! I’d go back just to eat there again! The chap serving us was nice and seemed to have a passion for his menu(not sure if he was the owner). Breakfast was good too. The hotel is in a great location, just being off the a303 it’s ideal as a stop off without being right next to the duel carriageway. Plenty of free parking
- Nina (10/5): - Our stay at Northover manor hotel was fabulous from start to end. I'd hoped for better circumstances for our stay, as we were in Ilchester for a family funeral. All of the staff were fabulous, very friendly and accommodating. Breakfast was cereal and juice followed by cooked breakfast of choice, with copius amounts of tea/coffee.
- chriselda (10/5): Good stay - Friendly reception and the room was comfortable and clean. Will return in future.
- Joseph (10/5): - Very good hotel.
- George (10/5): - We had accessable room (10) and my only critisism with the hotel was there was hardly room for my left leg to get between the wall and the toilet. And with a full hotel you best get up early for the shower there was no hot water lefrt for us, other than that an excellent stay.
- Miss M (8/5): Great service - One night stay, very comfortable, clean and lovely staff
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Beautiful building and garden, but the room was a little more basic than you imagine it'll be compared to how modern and fancy the rest of the place is. Room was pretty dusty/ cobwebbed, everything was fine, but only "fine".
- Paul (10/5): Business Trip - I just want to say big thanks for the recent stay I had at Northover Manor Hotel for a business trip. Due to my late arrival I was contacted by Tracey on my way down to ensure I had eaten as the restaurant would be closed by the time of my arrival which ended up being 9pm. Tracey had stayed on to ensure I had a warm welcome and gave information regarding my room and hotel. The following two days I was looked after by Flick who was simply lovely. Sorted me out a light breakfast each morning and cooking me an evening meal which was delicious. I was also greeted with a cold beer after my day at work and was allowed to work whilst drinking. Flick always went out of her way to chat with me which is lovely when you are away from home. Many Thanks
- Paul (10/5): Really nice hotel & staff. - Really nice hotel & staff. I stopped here for the first time and I will be staying again if I am in the area. Lovely attentive staff and nice food.
- Ian (10/5): - Would highly recommend, beautiful hotel & friendly staff
- Geoff (10/5): - Excellent Hotel. Friendly staff. Nice room, free parking and a fantastic breakfast.
- Brad (8/5): - I enjoyed my stay and the restaurant, bar area are lovely and inviting, however the same cant be said about my room. It was dated and in need of decorating.
- Terri (10/5): - Beautiful location with clean and comfortable rooms. Staff are very friendly and welcoming, they went out of their way to make me feel at home during a difficult time. Excellent home cooked breakfast as well
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Stayed overnight after a birthday celebration. Bed was comfortable, rooms clean and breakfast good. Parking area could do with an update, because although spacious, it was not concreted/tarmaced and our shoes and cases when loading and unloading became muddy
- Wendy (8/5): Recommend this hotel - Staff were so very good and friendly. Dinner and Breakfast was good. Wine reasonable Had a courtyard room which was excellent as I am not good with stairs. Also had a bath. Everything I requested. We would stay again Parking was easy.
- Verified traveler (4/5): Damp - The hotel itself is nice. The room was disgusting, smelt so heavily of damp. The following morning all of my clothes smelt damp and it really affected my chest. The room was so noisy. I could hear the people in the room above going to the toilet frequently, even just their walking about. The service was slow as there’s not many staff. Lovely village the hotel is set in and a lot of potential, just let down.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Absolutely great rooms and location, I didn't get to try the restaurant but it looked great. Wifi was a little patchy in my room.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Ample parking behind hotel, very friendly and helpful staff and nice large room. Slightly dated in parts (e.g. bathroom) but still a very pleasant stay,
- Joseph (10/5): Very good staff and service. - Food was to a very high standard and the service and staff were excellent. I have not had table service like this in a long time. Very high standard.
- RP (8/5): - Good size room and bathroom and very comfortable. Staff very welcoming and friendly. I thoroughly recommend .
- Tina (8/5): Nights stop over - Lovely people, nice area only suggestion would be a play area for children.
- Verified traveler (6/5): - The room I stopped him was shabby and dated not worth the money I paid
- Verified traveler (10/5): Charming hotel! - Ok so it’s a little dated compared to modern hotels, but it has charm. Great food, great staff, always friendly, quick service. Not much local but there’s things a short drive away like the fleet air arm museum.
- Stephanie (6/5): Ok - Some staff very friendly breakfast staff not so friendly and that’s the leaving impression
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Great staff, a credit to the place. Was given a room that I didn't like on arrival but was quickly changed and the second room was like night and day to the first...very nice.
- Spencer (10/5): New Years stay at the Northover Manor - What an Excellent place to stay, Happy and friendly staff, Delicious food and we had an amazing time. We will definitely be staying again.
- Verified traveler (8/5): Quirky and comfortable, if a bit noisy. - Tricky hotel to find. Rather old-fashioned room and furnishings were at odds with the modern bar and dining room. Service was friendly and helpful if a bit erratic - some wait staff were a lot more efficient than others! Food was excellent and the gluten free choices encompassed much of the menu. Breakfast was excellent with GF bread and a freshly-cooked full English. Would happily stay again but maybe in a different room as the noise from the bar seemed to reverberate along the corridor and was quite distracting.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Well located with easy parking. Hotel entrance easy to miss. Staff excellent.
- Joe (8/5): - Nice venue, good value, would stay again. Excellent breakfast and shower, nice people
- Yvonne (8/5): Large, comfortable room near the A303 - Just what we needed - a stop on the A303 to north Devon. Staff were all very friendly and helpful, and dinner in the restaurant was very tasty and good value. Comfortable, large room.
- Verified traveler (6/5): Good enough but not for £85 - Door jams / mouldings all dirty most everywhere. The yellowed, painted pine furnishings, all with sap seepage accent the dirty mouldings making it appear dirtier than it may be. Sticky tables in dining area. Dirty windows. Caring and helpful staff however, and free / ample parking. Other than that the whole place looks very tired.
- Dyffryn (6/5): Business stay over. - I was staying over ahead of a meeting Monday morning. Friendly staff, and good breakfast. Arrived on Sunday night 9:45PM . Hotel Bar and restaurant both closed. Wasn't expecting it to be so closed on Sunday night.
- Darren (10/5): Nice accommodation, great food - Country location, character property. Great friendly staff and excellent food. Easy to check in and out.
- brenda (10/5): Lovely hotel - Lovely hotel. Staff brilliant, very careing cannot do enough to ensure you have good stay. Pretty hotel. Highly recommended.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - It was a comfortable hotel which I used for an overnight stay, got there went to bed, got up, not a lot more to say
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Warm welcome, attentive staff, excellent meals - lovely hotel
- Anthony (10/5): Night away on business - Excellent friendly staff very helpful even though late checking food was also very good well presented For the cost of accommodation and food highly recommended
