The Hunting Lodge

Super weekend stay! Friendly welcome, lovely staff, delicious food and a quirky spacious room. Restaurant food was absolutely delicious.

We decided to give the Hunting Lodge another try as it is now under new ownership and we had heard good reviews recently. We were a party of 6 and we booked for a midweek lunchtime, the restaurant was fairly busy when we arrived. It has had something of a makeover and appeared much cleaner and tidier than on previous visits. The food was served hot and it was very good and the portions were generous. I would particularly recommend the pie of the day which was pork, chicken and stuffing. everyone was very happy with their chosen desserts too. All in all, a very enjoyable lunch in comfortable surroundings. everyone was well satisfied and we will certainly be returning in the future

Helpful friendly staff from the moment I arrived to the moment I left. The restaurant should be visited. Good car parking facilities Leaving on the Sunday morning well before "breakfast" began proved not to be a problem as a tray with a perfect Continental breakfast was left outside the door while I was using the en-suit shower.

Arrived after quite a walk all hot and bothered the staff were so friendly we asked if it was cool in the dining room they showed us to a table near the open door with a lovely draft, very friendly and attentive food came within 10 minutes even though it was busy food was delicious and hot, steak was cooked perfectly very tasty sauces as well would definitely come again and recommend.

Great hotel with boutique rooms. The staff were simply amazing, so friendly and helpful. Our room was huge and although a bit tired in places was spotlessly clean. We upgraded from continental breakfast to full English and omg, it was so good and a very large portion. I must also mention the coffee which was, and this is no exaggeration the best we have ever tasted, it was from ‘Forge’ coffee roasters in Sheffield if you are interested. If we are ever in the area again we would not hesitate to stay here again.

Visited with family (party of 20) for Sunday lunch had the 2 courses for £24 had the crab salad to start with beautiful and the roast lamb amazing came with all the trimmings..every body said was the best roast they have had for a long time ...nothing to much for the staff very attentive would definitely recommend big thank you to all the team 👍

I travel a lot for business and pleasure Neve came across such a horrible place in all my year traveling. Rooms was dirty we windows full of cobwebs Bed didn't look great so slept in my tee shirt Next morning the back of my tee shirt was full of yellow stains. Bar/ restaurant food reheats and to charge piece are outrageous Biggest problem was the breakfast. The booking includes free breakfast. Doesn't state that this is a continental breakfast. No option no for a hot breakfast. Not a great selection of hotels in Loughborough I have tried a few this is definitely the worst.

Little gem. Up at Loughborough with my son for a days training the following day. Really friendly welcome, great room(we were in Yoko). We had to leave next morning before breakfast service started. They wrapped up some croissants and fresh fruit and left them outside our room for us unbudden, which was a lovely touch. Lots of parking, clean spacious room. Just one minor gripe, the pillows. Only one of them, and really flimsy, but that aside couldn't fault it. Will use again, next time we're up here.

The outstanding features of this hotel are the warm welcome and excellent service from the staff, the very pleasant and comfortable dining experience, the nice clean bathroom facilities, and access to a regular rail service. A great place to stay if you are visiting the Great Central Heritage Railway, whose Quorn and Woodhouse station is short distance away by car; and there is also an hourly train service to Loughborough where the Great Central Railway has its HQ (20 minutes on foot from Loughborough station), from Barrow-upon Soar station which is just 200 metres walk from the hotel (step access to platforms) but no noise from the trains at the hotel as they are in a deep cutting. There is enough parking at the hotel but you don't need to have a car to stay here.
