Clearly this hotel is still in recovery from Lockdown. There are no kitchen facilities and limited options available locally. Bar was not staffed and no background music or TV to attract or encourage its use. Garden areas were overgrown and not in use. Has the potential to be a nice stopover but the website does not reflect the current conditions.

After checking in we learned that the property had previously (and possibly currently) was used to house refugees and was currently being used to house some very unsavory characters who were under investigation by the police. While the hotel staff were pleasant, the people hanging around the reception area were very sketchy and made the place feel dangerous. We stayed for three nights and the threat increased with time. I expected more from a Best Western and would not recommend that anyone stay here. I will certainly not stay there again.

Lovely staff, outdated décor, terrible shower
The exceedingly friendly and helpful staff were the only shining feature on our visit to The Old Golf House. The décor is very outdated and is in desperate need of an update. The shower pressure was almost comically bad, leading to us hardly being able to clean ourselves as only a small dribble came out of the shower head. This is a known problem that has still not been fixed. The breakfast was also quite lacklustre although this is to be expected for the price. Ample parking and good access to motorways.

Hotel was clan and comfortable although the choice on the bar was limited and there was only cold breakfast - I think the kitchen was being refurbished but it was a good choice

The hotel is still being refurbished but no mention of this on the website. No kitchen so no food and no Hot breakfast. Nearly all the local pubs/eateries are closed Monday and Tuesday. The bar area is sparse and unwelcoming. No hot water on the evening so had to move rooms. Got 1 minute of hot water in new room before it ran out. Do not stay here

Superb staff let down by shower issues.
The staff were outstanding and so very helpful and friendly. The stay was let down by poor shower pressure. It was difficult to wash because the water barely came out of the shower head. If this can be resolved then the stay would have been outstanding.

Ok but only just
Comfortable however the property looks tired and uncared for with old dirty looking carpets in communal areas. Also the bathroom though clean had a number of problems. The toilet is too near the wall. I am slender but a large person would have to sit sideways on. The shower was difficult to operate and totally lacking in power. The sink taps were also inefficient. Bed was comfortable however but the furniture is old and outdated. Staff on reception on arrival pleasant.

Nice old place but….!
Lovely lady on reception. But no food available and only continental breakfast available, that wasn’t clear when I booked. The shower was just pathetic. Really low pressure and they knew of the issue apparently. It needs a refurb but I appreciate for the price of the room you get what you pay for.

Tired
The service is friendly and I got the impression that nothing was too much trouble. Unfortunately that's the best I can say. The continental breakfast was stale and inedible. The room was clean and comfortable but very tired. Considering that it was a non-smoking hotel there was a lingering smell of stale smoke throughout much of the downstairs corridors. It's not currently in a state that would make me book again despite the friendliness of the staff.

Find a different hotel.
I ordered a room with a double bed, I got 2 singles. There was noise and banging all night and a spotlight coming on throughout the night. Someone banged on my door at 1am then at 4am. The continental breakfast was a joke with limited choices. Reception was abandoned half the time. I complained but the owner laughed it off. I certainly won’t be going back.

Family visit to Yorkshire!
Staff all very friendly and positive. Bedroom very warm even with no radiator on and window open at night. This is a problem I recall when I stayed at the hotel 3 years ago. Now under new management, problem still ongoing. Management need to resolve issue as it would deter me from booking again particularly during warmer weather.

Very tired hotel, newish clean carpets in most places but in need of a lick of paint and a general spruce up. Someone was bitterly complaining that there was not hot water. I did tell them it takes a while and you had to turn it on full. They then complained there was no ice in the bar and worst of all no marmalade at breakfast, just apricot jam.

Good enough for what you pay for
Over all I can't complain it was just abit disappointing. The decor needs to be upgraded a bit. It feels a bit tired, when I got into my room one of the pillows had a stain on it, And I was expecting a little bit more than just toast and boxes of cereal for the £6 that I paid for for breakfast as an additional charge. But overall I was just using it as a place to stay for a wedding. My inconveniences were minor
