Amazing hotel

This is an amazing Hotel, a lovely blend of the modern bedrooms with the nostalgic stately home for the other areas. Mattresses very hard for me, but then that can be personal preference, but I struggled to sleep. Staff very friendly and super attentive to the needs of guests. This would be a beautiful wedding venue, with the quality of the food, the awesome staff coupled with an idyllic location, 5 stars

Avalon House is top notch! It felt like a cozy inn. It was very clean, had excellent staff/service, and included free and easy onsite parking. Breakfast was excellent, as was the pub/bar area. We would definitely recommend and would stay again.

One of the most beautiful hotels I've ever been to

Probably the most beautiful, most tastefully designed hotel I've ever stayed at. It was an unexpected gem, truly lovely hotel, nice staff, a few steps away from the adventure park. Nice breakfast choices, comfortable, beautiful, clean room.

Lovely hotel in a good location with parking

Received a very warm welcome from Jade on reception. She is an absolute asset to your team. Bar was nice and sat outside in the courtyard for a very tasty steak sandwich. Parking on site is free and at the back of the hotel. Nice place to stay and would go back again.

After a long flight, we were very happy to be able to rest in this beautiful place. The staff were all friendly and answered all our questions. We arrived quite late, 6:30pm in the evening. We ate at the Avalon restaurant for supper at 7pm. The meals were wonderful. The breakfast the next morning was wonderfully good and very filling, if you have the option to pick the breakfast included in your stay, I would highly recommend it. My family all had a great sleep in the very comfy beds. We would stay again if we ever have the opportunity to pass through. Family of five.

We were just there for one short night, but the property was beautiful. The room was very comfortable and the staff was accommodating and friendly. We dined in the bar and the food was delicious. I would definitely recommend this and would come back and hopefully get to stay longer than just one night.
