I travelled to the Fox and Hounds with my pet dog for a short break. Talking to other visitors, the hotel has a strong country tradition and Nick and Tara have maintained this whilst giving a great service that still manages to be informal, modern and welcoming. The location meant that you have no choice but to forget about the... more

Manager was a pleasant though his receptionist did not take his lead on that front, Basil Fawlty's wife sprang to mind! The hotel is set in a nice location and the grounds and public areas where all rather nice, however the room let the whole experience down, small, dusty, smelly, the bed appeared to have been purchased from a charity... more

Our furnishings are antique in the country style appropriate to the hotel. Our lowest price rooms are the smaller rooms which is reflected in the price.

We had booked through a separate company on the internet and unfortunately when we arrived the hotel did not know of our booking and they were full. However, we were made to feel very welcome and offered the bridal suite which was the only available room. Nothing was too much trouble and the staff were not only welcoming but polite... more

We (2 adults, 1 child & 3 dogs) stayed at this lovely hotel for 3 nights. We were all made to feel very welcome, even the dogs and it was nice to feel relaxed about having our dogs with us. The room was lovely, very spacious and well situated for taking the dogs in and out without any hassle. We... more

I stayed at the Fox & Hounds for one night with my husband and our dog. I thought it was a bit pricey at £130 per night and was expecting something a bit more luxurious. The corridors leading to the rooms really let it down and gave it a tatty feel. The room was nice enough but a bit old-fashioned... more

My partner booked this hotel as a last minute getaway for one night over a weekend. We were unable to get a room with a four poster at such short notice but instead the Hotel gave us The Garden Suite which was a room on the ground floor with two double beds and a seating area which had its own... more

My husband and I stayed here on two separate nights in January. I booked in advance through their website. There were a couple of hiccups, but everything got sorted out pretty promptly. We paid £100 for bed and breakfast. Hotel was easy to find with sat nav, even though it warned us that the location was "surrounded by railway lines".... more

Got married there in October and I am so happy we did - had the civil ceremony upstairs, had dinner (for 120 people) in the restaurant and then drinking/dancing in the pub area until 1am. The whole thing went so well and many guests complimented us on the choice of venue - very relaxed and not at all stuffy, in... more

We held our daughter's wedding reception at the Fox & Hounds on Sept. 5th. From the first visit in February to our departure on 6th Sept. everything worked like the proverbial clockwork. Many of our guests have complimented us on our choice of venue, with particular reference to the quality of food and service offered. Our thanks to Tara and... more

Staying locally, not at the Hotel...we decided to splash out and have dinner as a treat at the Fox and Hounds...we had attended a Ruby Wedding event here some weeks ago and were impressed by the organisation, attentiveness of the staff and the food...there were about 100 in all...so we thought we would try the hotel for a "smaller" experience...we... more
