"My first 2 days were double booked so they moved me to another guest house, which was actually good but I had to go back to Eagle for breakfast!!
On day 3 they put me in room 1. It was very large with a comfortable bed, however
1. The safe was broken
2. There was no plug in the bath.
They said there was a water shortage.
Eventually, the next day I got a plug.
Their pool was "green" and unusable.
The TV did not work. They changed it twice but I never got to see a program. When they finally said it was sorted when I clicked on a program a message came up saying rhe max number of users had been reached so I could not access it. I finally gave up.
The young lady in charge of breakfast and my room was outstanding."
"Stayed for a night with my girlfriend on the way back from the midlands.
The owner Tina was an incredibly sweet and kind lady.
With the property being nestled on its own serene little plot of land, I'd highly recommend it to any couple looking to unplug from the world for a little bit."
"Have been using Redlands for over 20 years - even celebrated milestone family events at the hotel. Never again - it is in a very poor state of disrepair with many things broken and staff have an apathetic attitude towards customer service.
Dont believe the manager when she says the air conditioners are being fixed - we were told the same thing nearly a year ago and still broken.
We chose to give Redlands another chance because of the convenience of its location - rather be inconvenienced and stay elsewhere! A great shame! "
