The room was pleasant and quiet. The staff had bent over backwards to give us a ground floor in order to accommodate our disabled grandchild. Very nice area.

A lovely peaceful place with its own moat and fishpond as well as a working canal behind it. Dog friendly, with a dog bed and bowls supplied. My second visit with my two dogs.

First time staying at the Moat House. We had an unexpected room upgrade and we ended up in the Pagent suite which is a beautiful room with patio doors that lead onto the side of the canal. All of the encountered were very friendly but also professional. We had our evening dinner in the restaurant and the food was fabulous. This hotel is a gem. We will definitely go back.

Our second stay here and it certainly won’t be our last. Excellent Hotel. The only thing letting it down was the lack of USB connections in the bedroom. A minor point granted. The quality of the food is fabulous!
