Tewinbury Farm Hotel

Nice hotel, limited dining options.

A lovely hotel in gorgeous surroundings, with lots of different options for eating and drinking. We stayed in Oak room which had a mezzanine level. The room was gorgeous but there was a terrible drain smell in the bathroom (usually at night) which filtered through into the main room and if we kept the door shut, it was absolutely disgusting the next morning. I spoke to house keeping who acknowledged the smell and said it was the same in another room where there was no window in the bathroom. Her advice was to keep the windows in the main room open and to leave the bathroom door open. I have a bathroom at home that does not have a window and I don’t have this issue so I think the issue was something to do with the drains rather than a lack of window. I reported the issue to reception at checkout.

Everything was amazing. Only thing that has marked down a star is that the curtains were absolutely rubbish. Far too thin so o was woken up at 5:20am the moment it got light.

We arrived slightly later (21:30) after I checked someone would be there. Was assured 24 hours a day. The chap came into reception on his mobile and was not that bothered we were there, kept the person on his mobile whilst checking us in. We were kind of chosen where we needed to go by ‘our of here, in the car, turn left up the road, through the gates and you’re there’ We did exactly that. Cut to us wandering around in the dark, with no knowledge of where our room is. What’s worse is the room name we had wasn’t listed on any building. I called reception and he reluctantly drove up to help us. Our key cards didn’t work on the main door into our building anyway so even if we had found it, we wouldn’t have gotten in. The chap did go and get us another key and bring it back but after 25 mins of being in the dark and trying every door in a yard area we were a little annoyed.

Really lovely place. Room was very clean and modern.
