Excellent food and decent rooms

Lovely old building, big lounge area, helpful staff. Main building has a big staircase so we asked to be put in the stables on street level with a ramp as we needed level access. The room was small but adequate. No lift in the main building.
Plenty of outdoor seating with beautiful trees and grass. Good function room at the back, great for weddings, car parpark.
Breakfast was fresh cooked to order as we were the only ones at that point.
The curry we had was delicious, unusual and not the run of the mill sort.
The parking area by the road isn't theirs, though, so you could get a fine from the local authority!

Friendly staff. Room clean but dated. Needs new carpet. Breakfast cooked okay but budget ingredients let it down.

Went for the "Fish Friday 'meal deal' " - £10.95 fish ,chips mushy peas & a pint ( or fruit based drink for the ladies!) ..
Good portions,well cooked fish. Freshly cooked , served on hot plates. Good presentation. Lemon wedge , skinned cherry tomato & sweet peas prout on the fish.
Enough chips for a grown up ,but not a mahoosive chippy portion.
Just right.
Service good. Hostess happy cheerful.
Recommended. Will go again .
Cannot speak to rooms..only had food

We didn't stay but we had a meal. Food excellent quality and very nice but a very long wait. We were told this is because all the food is cooked fresh

Room 1 Fire Alarm nightmare!
There is a fire alarm located in room 1. This went off three times on Saturday 17th August 2024. As the alarm is actually in the room it's deafening and I was fast asleep when it went off. I woke up in shock with this at roughly 11pm initially, having been asleep for roughly an hour. It was on for a minute or two I guess. Then, 2 more times this happened during the night, the last time being midnight. After this I called reception and they assured me the cooking issue (the cause) was now resolved. This was very disruptive.
The alarm has been cited before on Trip Advisor reviews, so this should have been sorted and moved elsewhere near to the room but not in it.
In the morning on checking out I received no apology. Very poor as they must know the alarm is in that room, very close to the bed and very loud. And because of my call.
Other than this, to give a review of my experience otherwise, the hotel is dated, but clean, the room was big and had everything needed. The previous night the bar closed just before we arrived, but they kindly allowed us to have a drink to take outside before closing again. They have beautiful grounds. Probably a Wedding venue and there was a late party the same night as the alarm, but wasn't overly loud.
A slight security issue was the back door, which is used after the bar is closed to get to some of the rooms, I used it and it was not locked (even though I had a key to get in). I ensured the door was then locked (it wasn't a customer leaving it open, as I was the first to use it that night after the bar area closed).

Went for Sunday lunch with two of my dearest friends and it was by far the best I've ever had. Even at 3pm all the veg was fresh and not soggy, the meat (I had roast lamb)was gorgeous. Staff were fabulous, friendly, polite and professional. I can't honestly say that there was a fault with anything. Absolutely perfect.

Well where do I start, thank you,thank you, thank you Dency and Praveen. Our daughter Heather married the love of her life Aaron at The Elms and oh what a day, it was perfect in every way. Firstly thank you both for all the arrangements in the build up. Thank you to all your team for the fantastic job in setting up the room and ceremony area they looked stunning. Every member of staff had a smile through out and nothing was too much trouble. Thank you for the incredible food, it was just scrumptious. Overall experience was amazing and I would highly recommend this establishment for your special occasion. Very much appreciated, thank you. Kind regards. Fiona
