Holbrook Manor & Spa

Placed in a brick single story bedroom come lounge . Very grubby carpet. Vertical blinds hanging from runners. Area generally in poor repair. Hot and and cold tap in bathroom constantly running. Garden view. (REALLY) £83 No breakfast. Reception no real interest and the garden cafe closed at 1600, despite being told it would offer some simple foodstuffs and drinks. Forget it. Spa users some were very rude and clearly guest staying over were well done the list..

Beware photos don’t match Beware of catfish pictures, we had booked a superior suite that was meant to have beautiful sash windows and a bath. Upon arrival we were tucked away in an attic room which was dark and no bath. There is no lift and we had to walk to the furthest room with our 8 month old things, when telling the man on the front desk I wouldn’t recommend putting someone with an 8 month old in the room, he just said we’ve never had that feedback before. This same gentleman was the slowest check in ever taking 20 minutes to do 2 people. You can see they’ve tried with a new fit out but little things like seeing all the bed sheets in a dusty old wardrobe in the hall was very dissapointing and a bit grim.

Not great very disappointed The look of the manor house was great, nice with old otiginal features However the bed was small despite the reservation said king size plus it was really uncomfortable and was making a lot of creaking noises The bathroom was really nice and big The swimming pool was a good size however not very clean you could see black patches on the corners The steam room smelled of urine The breakfast was not there despite we paid extra for a cooked breakfast there was barely anything to eat and the young girl at the cafe was not interested to fix the problem but more interested on her phone There was a lack of management clearly on the saturday night the was a nice lady however was left there on her own and barely knew what to do, didnt even know how to use the till in the cafe The outside garden area of the cafe is infested with wasps and again noone seamed interested on doing anything about that Very disappointed as for the price we paid i was expecting a good service

DISGRACEFUL STAY I am writing to lodge a furious complaint regarding my recent stay at Holbrook Manor, which was nothing short of disgraceful. I am demanding a full refund for what can only be described as a completely unacceptable experience. First and foremost, a wedding party was held directly outside our bedroom window (Room 12) — something we were never informed about, despite calling ahead at the time of booking. The music was excessively loud, guests were talking and laughing well into the evening, and it was utterly impossible to relax or sleep. The room had no air conditioning, so usually we would open the window, however we had no choice but to keep the window closed — and even then, we could still clearly hear every conversation and song. This was a massive breach of basic hospitality standards and a total failure to provide a peaceful environment for guests. It is completely unacceptable that no one thought it necessary to disclose the presence of a loud private event happening right outside our window. Secondly, we explicitly requested a disabled-accessible room, as one of our guests is on crutches. This was clearly noted on the booking form. What we were given involved navigating ten steps even from the “disabled access” car park, and long corridors just to reach the room. My guest struggled throughout the stay. If your hotel is not equipped to accommodate disabled guests, you have a duty to refuse the booking

Just some TLC required like door locks, lights overheating, desk too high and chairs too low, tv reception poor. Other than these minor things - I’d come back!!

Great Facility We had an over night stop on way to Devon. Were able to fit time in pool, steam room and sauna. These facilities were excellent however the general decor was tired and in need of maintenance. E.g. door frames near pool were rotten at bottom.
