Just returned today from this lovely hotel which made the short break for our 30th wedding anniversary all the more special. After a slight mix up with the type of room we had booked - which was sorted immediately thanks to carla we were more than happy with our room. Large comfy bed, spotless bedding and large soft towels. I... More

Stayed here for one night with my partner and our two daughters. Whilst there had been some confusion over the booking of the family room, this was quickly resolved by them offering us the separate cottage outside. Whilst the cottage is not up to the same standard as the inside of the hotel it was clean and the beds were... More

New rooms and clean. Large bathroom. Good and large beds! Very cosy hotel. Breakfast wasn't included, but there is a very nice cafe next door: delices de Mademoiselle, which is excellent for breakfast and low priced.

Particularly appreciated the lounge - smart, coordinated & comfortable settees. I spent a couple of hours here reading in front of the fire and relaxing with a glass of jolly good red wine. The breakfast was freshly cooked & using more superior products than you often get a hotel of a much higher star rating. I was a solo traveller... More

We booked this hotel at the last minute, based on the reviews on TripAdvisor. No regrets at all. Service was excellent and the breakfast very good! The offer of tea and coffee is always there when we have to wait for anything. We love your cookies, Ben! The owner has definitely filled in the gap of giving added value to... More

We booked at Brooks very last-minute this week due to a change in plans for our trip that our previously booked hotel would not accommodate. Brooks was fabulous - I wish I had found it earlier! The staff were warm and welcoming and went out of their way to get us settled in a family room with our baby. The... More
