A very nice venue with excellent staff and service. Would have scored it 5* BUT we stayed overnight on a Sunday (when the main restaurant is routinely closed), only bar meals were available for guests. The menu options for someone with food allergies were poor at best. Only one main course (steak), but no starters and no desserts available for someone with gluten and dairy allergy. A hotel of this calibre should be able to do better than this.

Our one night stay was generally very good. We dined in the restaurant off the main, most expensive menu. I ordered sea trout which was enjoyable but a rather small portion. My wife ordered fish, triple cooked chips and crushed peas. The triple cooked chips were soggy and the crushed peas lacked flavour. Overall, the dining experience was somewhat disappointing for the price.

Lovely hotel, friendly helpful staff and a great breakfast. However the bed mattress was old and very uncomfortable with loose protruding springs which led to a very poor nights sleep. Left the following morning more tired then when we arrived, which spoilt our weekend away!

Brilliant stay at the Moat House and super convenient just off the M6 for us. Both reception and bar/ restaurant staff were so welcoming, friendly and accommodating for us with a young baby. Our evening meal was delicious and a great cooked breakfast in the morning. Lovely spacious room with character from the oak framed windows and beautiful setting outside. Would definitely come back again!

Given that there was a large Prom event the night we stayed, the bar restaurant staff were excellent and made us feel Welcome. And our room was quiet and has a great night sleep. Restaurant staff were lovely at breakfast.
