They clearly didn?t want us to dine there. Showed us the menu first hoping it would be too expensive and advised us they don?t sell chips. We looked at the menu and I was looking forward to a nice steak. They then told us there were no tables available. Obviously not their type of customer.

Went in there great french pastries unfortunately not covered and loads of flies on them! Wouldn't personally eat here.

The food was wonderful, nice sized portions, and cooked to perfection. Can't wait to go back to the area for a return visit. Staff attentive but not overly so.

30th Wedding Anniversary Visit that was great in every regard. The staff where exceptionally friendly, helpful and welcoming, communication from booking was excellent. The room was good, well appointed with a great selection of teas and proper coffee as well as a fruit bowland plenty of water!The bed was great, all appointments were modern and yet traditionally themed decor, toiletries and furnishings for a perfect mix of utility and comfort. Without doubt the greatest part of the trip was the superb dining experience, timed dining made for a relaxed atmosphere and all three courses were exceptional. The quality of the food stands apart and I was very impressed with the emphasis on British and local products. The cheese platter stood out. Our waiter was attentive, friendly and knowledgeable. The hotel is also very dog friendly. The price for DBB was very good value for money and we had a memorable anniversary experience and hope to visit again. Well done to the team at the Traddock.

If we could give this very special hotel 6 stars then we would. Every single person working in this glorious place gives tge best service possible. We?ve stayed at The Savoy and The Dorchester and it?s comparable in service, food and friendliness. This was our 4th visit and hopefully not our last. Thank you Paul and all your amazing staff.

Beautiful location and grounds, cosy inside especially in front of the fire. The food wasn't for us. Breakfast was nice. Lovely wine! Our room was large and spacious but needed some updating and the iron imprint on the carpet was unsightly. 99% of the staff were great, so attentive and very friendly. Disappointing that I wanted to leave some balloons for friends visiting a short time after us and was told you wouldn't blow them up for their room on arrival. Overall a nice stay.

Beautiful room, amazing food and wine options. Faultless service- the team were so welcoming and accommodating. No pretentiousness; made to feel very special

Beautiful hotel with excellent, friendly service. I?m not sure why a recent review gave them only 1-star for service because we found everyone really personable. A special mention goes to the young man in the restaurant who was always smiling and cheerful. He was such a delight!
Dinner was fantastic, although I must admit we didn?t try the taster menu. Breakfast, however, was disappointing. The cooked breakfast serving was tiny, definitely not enough to keep you going on a walk all morning. Let?s face it, a quarter of a slice of fried bread is ridiculous! Be warned and make sure you have some muesli or granola first, just to fill yourself up. Considering how much we spent, I?m really surprised at the stingy portions. We go away a lot and breakfast is always a generous serving. This would be the only thing that would make us think about staying somewhere else.

Great hotel with luxurious rooms, great service and amazing food (but small portions). Will definitely be going again.

Rooms were nice and comfortable.
Shower was very small.
Location is great for walking.
Food was very disappointing. Presentation of the food was good but the quality of ingredients and flavours were lacking. The pub down the road is of the same standard and much cheaper.
Service was really slow and inattentive.
