The hotel is centrally located, with lovely church views. We stayed for a night in the Hayloft. Room was clean, bottles of water etc are a nice touch. Ceilings are very low, being a loft. There is just a bath, no shower, no full length mirror, and nowhere to really put your stuff in the bathroom so had to leave toiletries on the floor. Breakfast was lovely, nice restaurant and polite staff. The small car park was full so we had to park in a pay and display down the road. Not too far but a bit inconvenient at 11pm in the cold when you are carrying several bags. For the price it would be nice to park on site. All in all a nice clean hotel, and a lovely historic building, just a few minor niggles but a nice comfortable stay.

We booked a ”Superior” room with lake view. It's true there was a good view of the lake through the window, but the window was small, incidental part of the room and suffered with condensation. There was nothing superior about the room - it had a damp musty smell and a generally tired look. On the plus side the bed was warm, clean and comfortable with good pillows. The corridor to the room had an air ”freshener” in it, I assume to mask the smell of dampness. It was turned up so high the air was barely breathable. The bathroom was also tired and had a warning about not burning yourself in the shower. This was clearly because the shower was not fitted with a thermostatic control. Although the hot water was fine in the evening, it was too cool to wash in by the morning so the warning was irrelevant! For dinner, the Lamb Shank and Chilean Merlot were very nice. As was the chocolate pear tartlet and raspberry sorbet. The salmon and its sauce were however uninspiring. The dining room was just a bit too bright and a bit too cold for a really comfortable meal though. The staff were always friendly and helpful. We were given a reduction for the hot water being cool water, but overall this stay was just not value for money.

We visited The Haycock recently for dinner in Prevost and an overnight stay and we were very impressed, we were greeted with a warm welcome by Chloe and Luda in reception and shown to our suite, This was beautifully decorated and the bathroom was very plush the shower and noble isle toiletries in particular were fantastic. Dinner in Prevost was superb, we experienced the 8 course tasting menu and were not left disappointed, the dessert courses were absolutely perfect and upon meeting the pastry chef it was clear she is incredibly passionate about her craft . We also enjoyed the wine flight with dinner and all of the wines were well thought out and interesting. Lilly and Cordelia were very attentive. Breakfast the following morning was freshly cooked and absolutely delicious. Becky was fantastic during breakfast service and looked after us wonderfully. All in all it was an amazing evening and we can't wait to come back!.
