The room was a bit tired and the bathroom had a toilet leak didn’t complain as only stayed one night! Did mention it the next morning. Saying that the bed was comfortable and the room clean and a decent size. The food was excellent and reasonably priced. The heritage building and grounds were amazing and the overall price was good value.
Restaurant is excellent and has really great steaks.

Low stress overnight trip. We took a chance on an early check in and the team were calm and relaxed and were very helpful, we booked breakfast which was superb value and utterly delicious- great veggie breakfast and good coffee and extras available. We stayed in a lodge room, which was perfectly adequate- comfy bed and free WiFi.
A few areas to improve from a decorative point of view but a good value and relaxing stay.

Needs updating
Reception staff good. Room is quite dated, bathroom in particular needs updating. Breakfast was lovely, hot & freshly cooked.
I stay here regularly when on business in the area and I’m never disappointed. Great building with loads of character, a variety of comfortable rooms, friendly staff and great food. What’s not to like ?

Really good evening meal and equally good breakfast. Day 2 returned from my day of stuff to find the places locked up no staff lights off. Ended up going to tescos to grab something to eat.
I stayed in one of the log cabins, spacious room, comfy bed, it rained hard all night and the noise of the rain hitting the roof was very soothing
Would book this hotel/log cabin again

Superb location
Only stayed one night, as just passing through.
Super friendly staff (who turned out to be the owners)
Excellent food!
Easy parking, off the main road.
Lovely and quiet.
Stunning property.
Superb location.
Stayed in the annex, which was ok, but a bit tired.....
A lovely quiet secluded gem of a place. Nothing too much trouble for the lovely couple running the Grange for the past 18 years. Facilities wise bed was super comfy, room clean, the generous sized bathroom needs a bit of a revamp but doesn't affect use (shower screen and windows).
Food was delish and homecooked.
A relaxing atmosphere and a peaceful 3 night stay.
We had a log cabin in the garden as we had our dog. Good king bed and the gardens were lovely and peaceful.
Lovely walk across
The fields in the morning for the dog.

The hotel is beautiful inside and out. Gardens lovely and secluded. Staff excellent
Sadly the plumbing in Rm 10 terrible and we had no water or able to shower.
What a wonderful place to stay! The lodge we stayed in was perfectly suited to us. Loved the veranda and the table and chairs so we could sit outside in the evening with a view across the lawn and to the trees.
Breakfast was a feast - only disappointment was that we were only there for one night. We plan to return and stay for longer next time.

We stayed in one of the Cabins - really pleasant to sit outside and have a drink looking at the gardens. Someone had so obviously been smoking inside there though, the smell of stale tobacco hit us as soon as we got in. The decor is tired and a bit sparse in there but overall we did enjoy it! Staff are great and it’s lovely and quiet.
