Went for a couple of nights before Christmas. Really great friendly service and food. The grounds were good to walk around, I bet they are better in the summer.

Totally had our eye's out for our afternoon tea. Totally different price than told over the £120 for 4 people. Now we know why it was so quiet. The tea came with no side plates or cutlery. Had ask for.

Great bathroom, room is big, but no opening window so claustrophobic and warm. Needs some form of information booklet/laminate. Details of breakfast times, checkout etc. No bar menu offered so no idea of what is on offer. Food is OK, a bit bland and uninteresting for a small menu. Chicken ballatine was very cold, needed to be out of the fridge a little, tempura prawns had little coating. Didn't like smoked mashed potatoes, personal choice but too much. Food is well cooked just not the standard expected. Breakfast was great. Staff very helpful . Just needs some oomph!

Came here as a couple for a friend’s wedding. Fantastic day and the hotel did all they could to make the day work how they wanted it. Great space for wedding reception including a good size dance floor. Reasonably priced drinks and decent wines. Rooms were the perfect combination of rustic old country house and modern, clean facilities.

We had our wedding this week at Judges. The whole team were absolutely fantastic, from planning and organising (thank you Suzanne) to perfect, exceptional delivery (special thank you to Sam who was new to the team and so professional). Our day was unforgettable and we can't recommend Judges highly enough for their exceptional delivery.
