We had dinner in the main restaurant Orchards on Saturday evening, the menu was excellent great choice for all 4 of us, the staff were very well trained & friendly. We also had Sunday lunch the following day, a busy service but the food & service again was excellent. If asked yes I would recommend this hotel to all, thank... more

We got married at the haycock back in September; we had the ceremony in the tapestry room and the wedding breakfast in the barneby room. The wedding day was excellent and ten out of ten, from the ceremony through to the reception. The only negatives, which did take the shine off but were totally avoidable, were; a) we had three... more

We went here to celebrate my daughters 21st birthday and wished we hadn't! The food was terrible and the sevice wasn't much better apart from the waiter who had started that night. I had linguini and prawns which was served without any sauce/dressing, so was totally bland. We had the salmon and haddock fishcakes for main but they had really... more

Stayed for 3 nights DB&B. We have a pet dog and stayed in one of the rooms in the courtyard with French doors giving access to the walled garden. There is also a gate here leading to a lovely river walk. The food is truly outstanding and all of the staff were great. Must say that Laura, in particular who... more

Stayed at the Haycock recently and we were really disappointed with the food and service. We book dinner on the saturday night and the evening went from bad to worse. The starters were horrible, my fishcakes were boiling on the outside but cold in the middle and my husband’s starter was tasteless. We presumed the main course would make up... more

We were at the Haycock hotel for a wedding reception, and decided we'd stay the night. We were pleased to find out that the Haycock hotel was dog-friendly, even if it did mean that we had to upgrade to a Garden Room. Dogs aren't allowed in the rest of the hotel, but the grounds and garden are big enough to... more

. The Haycock 5 years ago was a different experience, the old fire place and friendly local bar has been turned into a hotel with an identity crisis. The lounge's stone floor with sky TV looks more like a pizza express and the mish-mash of theme's and furniture continues throughout the building. The Haycock was once the buzz of the... more

After a memorable stay here 4 years ago we decided to return .. .On remarking to the receptionist that it appeared to be quite quiet .. we were then told that they, the staff, were all recovering from a busy weekend ,7 weddings in total. (. this time we stayed in a room which overlooked the main street into the... more
