Had a lovely stay at Copthorne. Room was clean , quiet area , like the view of the lake from our room , staff was very friendly and helpful, enjoyed breakfast and had a great sleep. The hotel is near restaurants and shopping places and a short walk to the bus stop. Only downside is that the bathroom needs updating . But overall, had a great stay at this hotel.

Hotel is recovering from not having guests for a long time. Staff are excellent, and the visible parts are kept clean. However a lot of money needs to be spent by the owners to upgrade the rooms, plumbing, electrics etc. The leisure facilities and meeting areas need to be redone completely. This is not a case of painting and cleaning. Please Compton’s management spend the money.

Great location. Feels rural - my friend saw a kingfisher! - but is right next to a useful small retail park and very reachable by road. Everything except the bath plug worked. Cosy. Nice staff. Excellent breakfast. For the night that we booked, it was good value, though it often costs more.
