Guest Reviews
- Doughty (7/5): - Beautiful area. Nice clean room. Good Breakfast. Plenty of parking. If you open the window you have to open the wooden blinds to let the air in the room then can't sleep with the light coming in also hall stairs carpet needs a good clean or replacing as it lets the place down. Ps Wooden blinds look great but needs curtains also

- Robert (8/5): -
- Courtney (10/5): - Everything
- Victoria (6/5): -
- Clarke (10/5): Amazing friendly homely hotel. Feels like your million miles away from reality - We walked through door and the staff where there to welcome us they where so friendly made us feel welcome and made bit of a fuss over my son which was lovely. The room had everything we needed and more. The room was so private and had so many luxury items we felt like we were in a private villa. We can not wait to return Nothing. Everything was perfect
- Petr (10/5): Comfortable - Hot tub Nothing
- Rob (10/5): -
- David (10/5): -
- Paiige (10/5): Amazing yet again, they go above and beyond to make your stay perfect - How clean and relaxing it is I just has this aura around the whole place that just puts you in state of pure peace Nothing I picked up on that I didn’t like about this place
- John (10/5): - It's the fifth or sixth time I've stayed there now... always friendly, clean and great breakfast too 😋
- Kimberley (10/5): Outstanding, staff can’t do enough for you. 🤩 - Everything, the staff, the room, the food! All of it is perfect. Nothing
- Rawand (10/5): Amazing, pet friendly very very friendly staff - Clean, friendly and tasty food
- Lauren (10/5): -
- Donald (10/5): -
- Christian (9/5): -
- Antony (2/5): Very disappointed with the behaviour of other guests and the lack of sound insulation between rooms. - The staff were amenable and our first night stay was fine when we did not have guests on either side. There was no sound insulation between the rooms which was extremely embarrassing on the second night. On the other side we had a hard of hearing couple and could not hear our own TV, so had to use subtitles.
There was also a very vocal argument in one or more rooms which carried on until we rang the hosts who do not live on the property. This was around midnight. After they left guests were still very loud and did not quieten down until 3am. At one point we had packed our bags and were considering leaving. The property generally was in need of upgrading.
- Sarah (10/5): We loved our stay, just perfect - We stayed in Aguila room. We were met at the front door by the most welcoming lady (i didnt catch you name, sorry). The room was stunning and immaculately clean. Lovely sized hot tub, gorgeous private garden, private steam room. Then there was the little touches, a bottle of prosecco chilled in the fridge in our room, fresh milk in the fridge for hot drinks and biscuits. We ate in the restaurant on the evening, we had blue cheese fondue and potatoe skins for starters then duck and the lamb for our main, both were absolutely divine. Breakfast was brought to the room at a time of our choice (full English, toast, fruit pots and preserves plus bucks fizz if we wanted), the food was just gorgeous. The team were lovely during our stay, nothing was a bother to them. This is an absolute hidden gem and we cant wait to come back. By far the best hot tub break we have had so far. There is nothing at all to dislike.
- Gillian (9/5): Warm welcome and comfortable stay - Warm welcome, friendly staff, clean rooms and excellent food. Maybe some hooks in the bathroom?
- Ashlie (10/5): Beautiful ❤️ - The staff are amazing go above and beyond it’s our favourite place to visit Location only as we are not drivers if we did want to go out they not much about but the staff leave you info for takeout etc and cater for all your needs
- Bernie (9/5): -
- Kevin Fishwick (9/5): Tour of the north east. - We got a lovely welcome from a nice lady. Showed us to our room. Made sure we wanted for nothing. The room was ideal. Plenty of towels and fresh milk and water for the tea tray. As the bar and kitchen was closed Mon and Tues (which we knew in advance) we went for a drive and found a nice place for food. The breakfast the following morning was excellent. Varied choice and plenty to eat. Would definitely recommend and definitely return. Thanks Nothing really.
- Brian (8/5): -
- Leah (10/5): We stayed for one night and wish we booked to stay longer. Lovely stay, great facilities and wonderful environment. - We stayed in the phoenix suite, the facilities were great. The staff was also excellent and very accommodating and always there if we ever needed anything.
- Julie (10/5): - An amazing room and facilities. Spotlessly clean. Incredible (in our case vegan) breakfast! Nothing!
- Katie (9/5): Another superb stay at Thomas Wright House - Second stay at Thomas Wright House in the Phoenix Suite. As with my first visit, it exceeded almost all expectations. The room was comfortable, had everything we needed and the spa bath was lovely.
We made use of the garden in the unseasonable warmth we've had and enjoyed our complimentary prosecco out there.
Breakfast was delicious and delivered complimentary to the room on time.
The staff are super friendly and helpful, happily getting us ice and glasses and even letting us know our takeaway had arrived.
The hotel was quiet and we weren't disturbed.
Would definitely visit again. There's very little not to like. The restaurant is only open on certain days and we weren't able to eat there but we knew in advance and planned accordingly.
The shower in the room could maybe do with a deeper clean around the door seals soon but that really didn't effect our stay.
The robes in the room were a little on the small side, larger ones would be more cosy and have better coverage.

- Jannine (10/5): Lovely little gem! Perfect stay! - The room was perfect. Exactly what we wanted! Immaculately clean and had everything we needed.

So glad we have found this gem of a place as we will be back for a longer stay. Nothing!!

From the moment we walked in to the second we walked out the door….truly phenomenal. I think our room was above a vent where people were smoking…bathroom would randomly smell like smoke.
- Kevin (10/5): Very relaxing night away with my wife with an excellent room and great food. - The room was better than we expected and the staff so nice and helpful. We really enjoyed our food in the restaurant and the breakfast to the room was a nice touch. Thank you to the owner for making us feel so welcome and looked after. The bed was a little soft for my back, but I tend to have that issue whenever I am not in my own very firm bed.
