nice room, terrible breakfast
Comfortable with an excellent wine list and lovely linen. Breakfast though isn't great and is pretty shoddily put together.

Better than the weather
A one night stay for a meeting on Sunday in Godalming.
Lovely village setting and a plainly popular venue for eating and drinking in spite of heavy rain.
Excellent breakfast freshly and individually cooked.

Chic and cosy!
Stayed for the weekend. The staff were exceptionally helpful and nothing was too much bother for them. The food was lovely both in the evening and the breakfast was varied which was great too. The room was very chic and cosy.

My stay for the weekend was for a local wedding.
From arrival and throughout my stay the staff at the property could not do enough - on arrival helping to carry bags to my room and showing me into the room.
The room was small but fine for me, the quirky old building meant that the room was sloped, but that adds to the character! Well equipped with coffee machine and kettle, complimentary bottled water and local beer.
Breakfast was wonderful, lovely continental buffet style and Cooked breakfast to order, all included.
We dined on the first night and the food was also lovely.
