"Fabulous stay once again, this is our 4th stay, the last stay about 3 years ago, and the hotel is just as good if not better. The room was very comfortable with a coffee machine, cookies etc. The staff team were very helpful and professional. We had dinner in the restaurant and that, as well as breakfast, was delicious. One minor point that did not spoil our stay whatsoever, something in the shower to hold the shower gel, shampoo etc."

Wild Thyme & Honey

Wild Thyme & Honey

10/10 Excellent
"Ive stayed in nicer rooms , ive ate in nicer bars but ultimately its the people that make a hotel. And the people at wilde thyme and honey are fantastic. A special shout out to Izy who couldn't do enough to help. The rooms are cosy and warm with thoughtful touches like pillow spray and a spot of sloe gin which was beautiful, the on site restaurant/ pub was lovely with a great drinks selection. The pantry is a useful addition for extra bits that you may need during your stay. One genuine gripe is that the car park is dangerously dark after dark. There is no lighting at all. All in all it was great. I would return for sure."
