Manningford Abbots Holidays from £170

Kitchen clean and well equipped, good condition, modern. Parking was simple to access and secure. Had to call as problem with key box lock code, but was assisted promptly and politely by Louise. 5*

The room is good and of a reasonably high standard. There are however two major challenges. The room was on the top floor which from the car park is three flights of stairs. A lot when you’re carrying several large bags and clothes for a wedding. The second big issue is the hall lights on a sensitive room sensor. There is no way to switch this off or lights off. The lights are very bright. This means you cannot leave bedroom door open at night which is difficult when it’s warm. As there’s no air conditioning this would be a major issue in hot weather. It also means trips to the bathroom at night are major issue in waking people up. As a result I would NOT recommend this room to friends and colleagues for these reasons Sorry guys but the room is excellent but the light issue is a major problem

Good all around. Cursed by Bristol council constantly digging up the road around the hotel

Excellent location, very convenient to have plenty of parking on site, extremely clean and well maintained room and excellent breakfast with great choices available

I stayed at Hollybush for 4 days and 3 nights over the May bank holiday weekend when we had a heatwave. At over £200 per night, this was a disappointment. The lodges themselves are beautiful structures with ample parking. I liked hearing birdsong everyday. The shower is great with excellent water pressure and hot water. The sofa is comfortable. In general it was a good location for where we needed to be. Ample grassy area for kids to play. But.. these lodges are not well equipped, not very clean (mud on bathroom floor, decking and outdoor furniture filthy) and the staff unresponsive. Before check-in i sent multiple emails both directly and via Expedia to ask about amenities and whether there is a fan (heatwave forecast) as it's a self catering place and I wanted to know how equipped it would actually be. I recieved zero responses other than to say booking confirmed, lock box code, and check out 10am sharp. Note: there are no cleaning supplies so bring your own scouring pads, sponges, cloths and spray. NO FAN! No foil, frying pans, baking tray, oil, sugar, ice cube trays. Only 4 coffee pods supplied for 4 days. Knives are blunt. The bin in the bathroom has no inner bucket or bag so everything will fall to the ground. one towel per person. Mattresses are very uncomfortable with no support on edges. No bathroom amenities including bleach. Bedside table is pretty but has large decorative holes so cant actually put anything on it other than a book. Outdoor fairy lights don't work
