I stayed for a weekend at the Traddock with my mother: I had the hotel's only single room (actually a 'bijou' double which would have been fine for two people for a night), and my mother had Room 4. The beds in both rooms were wonderfully comfortable, with lovely bed linen, towels and toiletries. Yes, the bathrooms are small, but as someone else has said, this is only to be expected in a very old building, and my power shower was great. The heating was easily regulated via the radiator thermostats. Our only slight concern was the lighting levels, which on dark winter mornings were a bit inadequate, and the decor in Room 4 made it seem even darker. Having said that, though, this was only a slight concern and others would probably find it romantic and atmospheric.
Everything else about the hotel was wonderful. It was warm, cosy, relaxing and friendly. The staff were all extremely helpful, informative and professional; we didn't ask them for much, but I'm sure if we had they would have provided it. The hotel was full of current magazines, lots of books and games. The food was terrific, and the wine list was extensive and not too pricey. On the first morning we were served freshly-squeezed fruit juice which was heavenly, but inexplicably on morning two we got standard juice, which was a disappointment.
The weather was awful, so we sat around in front of the log fire for ages reading the papers and magazines, and it felt like a very cosy home. We would definitely stay here again - and indeed hope to - and would recommend it to anyone.
