We booked our civil partnership ceremony at Carthorne after being let down badly by Thoresby Hall in Nottinghamshire and managed to find Crathorne on the internet. After speaking to the hotel we booked a one night stay to check it out in October 2007. On arrival we found that we had been upgraded to a delux room and although there... more

We stayed at this hotel as members of a wedding party. The hotel and most of the staff are excellent. We had booked a room for three, 2 adults and a 13 yr old. On booking we were told they did not have 3 bedded rooms but an extra bed would be placed in the room for us. The room... more

A good friend had his wedding there this weekend (5th July) and I really can't fault the hotel. Very grand and staff are extremely helpful. I think we had one of the standard rooms, but nothing about it was standard. Nice big plasma TV, lovely views and stylish decor... Recommended anytime.. more

Booked Crathorne Hall for 1 night stay. We stayed in a classic room, which considering this is the most basic room at the hotel, was modern and spacious. Only downside with the room was that it faced into a central courtyard, with no views and the kitchens below. This wasn't a problem until the kitchens opened up at 5.50am and... more

Hotel itself Beautiful converted country house hotel. Spectacular views across the Leven Valley - tranquility and character.

The room We stayed in... more

We have just returned from a night at Crathorne Hall with friends and feel that we have to provide a balance in viewpoints to some of the entries that are written about Crathorne Hall. Staff: Extremely friendly, gracious and willing - not one member of the hotel team could be described as surly, and i'm not sure why previous reviewers... more

We spent a night at Crathorne hall, on the recomendation of a friend. The Hall Is very imposing and Grand, leading to great expectation before even walking through the doors, Even though we only had an overnight bag I would have expected a porter service to take our bags and show us to our room, rather than , "turn left,... more

We booked this hotel at the last minute, feeling like a dreary, early January weekend needed cheering up. Only after we had booked (using the hopeless Lastminute.com site) did we read the reviews on this site. Reading some of the more negative reviews, we wondered what we had let ourselves in for. We need not have worried. If the hotel... more
