"Rushton Hall was a simply stunning property with beautiful original features and gorgeous bedrooms. The staff were Incredibly attentive and helpful, especially Ruby on reception. The food was excellent, and the ambience extremely peaceful and relaxing. The spa is undergoing some building works but the indoor facilities were still available. The grounds are extensive and the lake was a lovely place to simply sit and watch the local wildlife. I will definitely be returning."

"A cheap and cheerful hotel on the motorway services picked for the price after attending an event at Silverstone. Only needed a bed for the night. Did exactly what we wanted it for and was somewhere to rest. Room was small but perfectly fine. Bed comfortable and bathroom nice for what we needed. Used extra pillows and kettle. Had to ask for an extra set of towels as only one set for two people. As we booked with Hotel.com we had to pay £5 for parking. If you book direct it is free. Never happy we are charged extra for parking. Noisy at night as were four rooms from the reception and could hear people laughing and talking at 1am. However, would still recommend it as a cheap place to rest your head."
