Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort
The staff were excellent, very friendly, helpful & welcoming. The room was clean, warm & comfortable. We booked a double superior room & although the bed was very big the room was really quite small & ready for some refurbishment. The bathroom, again whilst clean, warm & functional, was very small and looked to have been designed & installed by a poor ‘DIY’er. The breakfast was very nice with the staff service again being first class.

The staff were very pleasant and very friendly. The food was delicious and well presented, however there was only one menu for the 4 days of our stay so choice was a bit limited. The hotel is well located in beautiful countryside and is very convenient for a number of interesting places. Overall we thought that the hotel is in need of some serious renovation and updating. Our best and en-suite really was dated and the shower cubicle was very tight and not in very condition.

Our standard double was quite small and the bathroom definitely very bijou. It was clean but more attention to dusting would be good plus impossible to watch TV from the bed and chairs were old and uncomfortable. The bar and bar/ restaurant (cricketers) were ok and staff pleasant. Food was good and plentiful. All in all, the hotel is in dire need of an update. I would stay again as I liked the bar, food and country feel about the place.

Lovely hotel, beautiful village .

Very friendly and helpful greeting , we arrived just as the kitchen was closing , however the host very kindly took our food order and showed us to a very pleasant table before completing the check in , which after a four and a half hour drive we were extremely grateful. It certainly started our weekend perfectly and continued to enjoy our stay in as much as we booked a second night at the Worsley Arms Hotel . In summary , welcoming hosts, polite attentive staff, lovely hotel with garden, food both breakfast and evening 5* , surroundings perfect .

This was a return visit, a comfortable, quiet stay. The hotel is very quaint with traditional decor, sitting room areas and a games section. Situated in an idilic village with beautiful architecture. The breakfast was superb. We had an evening meal in the Cricketers bar, the steak and ale pie was wonderful! Highly recommend and dog friendly.

The property was a little tired. We phoned ahead to say we would be arriving approx 2200 hours. On arrival the lady was not rude but also not very welcoming. The TV in the room didn’t work. The breakfast however was lovely and the 2 young servers were very pleasant and nothing was too much trouble for them. Overall we wouldn’t stay here again though
