We found this to be a great location for us with lots of family in the surrounding area. Room was a nice size, in the newer section of the hotel, and we loved that it had an air conditioning unit so we could cool our room down. …

This is the perfect hotel. The room was of a very high standard, the bed was comfortable, the water was hot with good pressure. The breakfasts were perfect and when we ordered room service, if we ate in the restaurant or if we ate in the bar, the food was to a very high standard, and there was plenty of it.I found the greatest asset at this hotel were the staff. The waiting staff were incredible as were all the other members, but I think the staff member that stood out most was Joe at the front reception. What a lovely young man who was the consummate professional, and who very easily conveyed a very warm and caring hospitality, that you can only find in England.We’ll go back to Australia with a sense that we were truly looked after and we’ll definitely be back.Thank you 😊

Nice room and nice hotel. Booking in was rushed, and I had no idea what any of the instructions were. Given that the young man was either keen to rush me through or to impress the female staff member, I thought it best not to ask. I didn't have any breakfast as those instructions were lost on me, so I cannot comment on the food.

- Philip on reception didn’t look up from his phone when I walked in after a 10 hour journey, no warm welcome just a cold unsmiling instruction where to sign. …

I stayed here for one night after travelling down from Oxford to see family. I must admit my choice of hotel had been met with some curious expressions so I was not hopeful when checking in. …

The room at the Birch was very nice and perfect for my stay away for work. Bed was very comfortable too. The Bar food was of a very high standard and would recommend to others. Had a great breakfast that was self service.
