What a bitter disappointment. I’d recommend the Garage Spa but don’t bother with the hotel and food packages. Hotel and food are massively over rated and priced.

The hotel itself is lovely and the food was very nice but the room I got was not worth the money I paid and I found the bar staff disinterested giving me the impression that they would rather be somewhere else but there. Back to the room, I paid £95 for a double which had 15% knocked off as I am a frequent traveler with booking.com so the room is usually £108. It was that small I felt I was in the staff quarters. They provided a hairdryer yet there was no mirror to use and they provided an ironing board with no iron. No bedside lamp or sockets by the bed and the main light had two out of its

Stayed there over Xmas and it was pretty good, just felt a bit isolated as there is nothing local. Andy the barman was great and chatted to us frequently. A credit to the establishment.

Great location, beautiful building, lovely scenery and quiet, which was surprising as it's quite close to the A66. Had lunch in the bar on Friday while driving to Scotland - a good break. Tried to the same thing on Saturday a week later and no lunches being served - curious. Will call ahead next time - but will go again if passing.

The personal polite service from Andy at the bar was second to none, felt very welcome and was attentive to us whenever needed. Food was wonderful quality and everything was served quickly. Will definitely be back.

I wish I had the foresight to read the other reviews before booking this hotel. The main reason I booked this hotel was because they show up on Booking.com as a hotel with an electric car charger station. I couldn't find this information on any of the apps to confirm so rang a couple of days before my stay to ensure it was correct. Upon speaking with reception, they told me it was first come first served situation with the station. I made the decision to book as I knew I'd be low on charge when we got to the hotel.
Pulling up at the hotel in the evening I thought I was in luck as the charging

This was my first visit to this hotel in a beautiful location and a stunning hotel.
Some of the staff are friendly and helpful while others were busy talking with each other rather than concerning themselves with the guests.
The room door is plane with a Yale lock, looks like something out of Fawlty Towers. However on opening the door the general look of the room is fantastic, with a four poster bed and double aspect windows. On closer inspection there very few available plug sockets. There is no sensible place to plug the kettle in. (I always take an extension with me as I have experienced this

We booked the Morritt for a 2 night stay on the way to Scotland for the first part of our honeymoon. Our initial thoughts on the look of the hotel were good, as the outside & the lobby/bar area looked really lovely. Even though we arrived in time for check-in, our room still wasn't ready so we had to wait (not really an issue). However, we were then taken to our room which was one of the 'cottages' round the back & we were extremely disappointed. It was totally not as expected & definitely not 4* or worth the £100 a night we were paying...
We spoke to reception who were very helpful, and asked

Nice hotel and great breakfast. Near very busy road despite rural setting. Nice spa. Service in restaurant is awful though. Young and pleasant staff struggling to cope. 2 out of 3 meals arrived, mistakes with bill, staff forgetting that we had paid 3 minutes earlier. Food was average. Service well below what is acceptable.

The Morritt is a classy, up market Hotel, restaurant and bar. We sometimes treat ourselves to Sunday lunch here and we are always impressed. Obviously priced above a standard restaurant thou defiantly not over priced at all. I think we pay something daft like about £3 more per head what is well worth it. Check the website out for the menu. Even thou it is classy, the staff are always friendly, polite and obliging unlike some smart places were they can make you sometimes feel out of place and making you feeling uncomfortable when they look at you down their noses.
