Hotels near Rock and River Outdoor Pursuits

"Was not keen on the check in, it felt a bit hectic trying to do with customer up at the bar and collecting food- think this could be something that can be changed. Other than that the accommodation was clean and the staff were friendly enough. "

"Cracks all in the room, no air conditioning and the food wasn’t very nice for breakfast, it had all flakes and seasoning all over it. "

"I had lunch which had fantastic choice and was fantastic "

"We have stayed a few times but before the hotel was closed for a few months we always enjoyed it here. We got into the room and the TV wasn’t working properly, staff did come to try fix it then the maintenance man. He couldn’t fix it so said he would speak to reception and ask for us to be moved, we waited an hour then went to reception the message had not been passed on. We then moved rooms, the tv worked for 30 minutes then the same thing happened at this point we just gave up. We then went to get some crisps from the bar to be charged £1 per packet for about 10 crisps so if your staying bring your own crisps as that was a complete rip off. We then went back to the room which was cold as the radiator was not heating up properly. At about 6am we heard an awful noise luckily my partner went to investigate and the kettle had started to boil without being switched on with hardly any water in we reported this the next morning. We did have a disappointing stay mainly due to maintenance issues, for a hotel that has been closed for 6 months you would expect it to be running with no issues. What refurbishments have been done I’m not sure as it still looks the same! Hopefully they will get the tv, heating and kettles sorted soon. "

"Clean friendly and convenient Shame about the £5 parking charge would prefer the price to incl parking otherwise great stay and comfortable "

"The stay was the worst hotel stay I have probably ever had especially for the price. The room I upgraded to I ended up buying an airbed for the additional bed as the quality was awful. I had a room for 3 people and only had 2 sets of towels, mugs and glasses etc and had to ask multiple times for extras at one point I even ended up with LESS. The restaurant was extremely slow and I was charged a different price for the same meal three days in a row. The room was not very clean and at one pint when I asked for an extra mug the staff asked if I could leave the door on the latch as they didn’t have a key at which point I refused and then I came back to find my door open I assume by one of the staff who had left it that way. Dreadful experience and would not recommend staying. The only redeeming quality was how good the gym was."

"We stayed at the Red Lion for a few days as we were meeting family. The accommodation is situated at the back of the pub and is bright and clean. You can access it by walking through the pub or walking round the back. There is plenty of parking but it can get busy when the pub is open! It’s situation means you have easy access to get to many places by road very quickly. The staff who work there are fantastic and very helpful. We had breakfast each morning as well which was excellent! I would recommend staying here"

"Perfect stay extremely clean "

"This is our first stay and the bar has been set exceptionally high for anywhere else ! Gill & Ian are fabulous hosts - warm and welcoming and there if you need them, nothing is too much trouble - but they give you the space you need. The lodge is immaculately clean and literally has everything that you might need for a stay. The decor is thoughtful, charming and everything is in superb condition. There’s a washing machine, tumble dryer, dishwasher, a fully stocked kitchen with everything you need - a cooker with a hob, air fryer, microwave, fridge, pots, plates, toaster, kettle, cutlery, cheese greater, bowls, glasses, cups, the lid goes on - it’s fantastic. Six seater dining table and lounge area with comfy sofas and chair along with temperature controlled heating. The place is massive -the photos don’t show how big it is. The lodge looks out onto a paddock with 2 horses and a little pony, which is amazing. There’s even a hairdryer and plenty of clean towels and loads of toiletries. They’ve literally tried to think of everything that you could possibly need - loads of what I packed was already here. Oh and did I mention the indoor private sauna and pool table - Wow ! We had a fabulous stay with our 11 week old border collie and she had her first and the second swim with Ian in the onsite dog swimming pool. Highly recommend this dog friendly lodge - thank you Gill & Ian - for a wonderful time at your lodge. "
