The bathroom in the family room had a mixer tap and it was difficult to get the water temperature mixed, so the temperature was too hot or too cold. There was a burnt out kettle in the room that needed to be removed. The cleanliness of the room was poor in parts with hair on linen, bathroom floor and an old sock down the side of the fold out bed. No roller blind on the skylight and one pillow on single beds. This hotel has character, it’s unique and served us well for the two nights we stayed. It was value for money.

The character of this property is wonderful and we were made very welcome and all staff were really lovely. It is clear that maintaining a property and keeping on top of the necessary refurbishments would be costly and our room was one of the most dated, other rooms were better decorated and had newer bathrooms. The food was wonderful, beautifully presented and good value for money. The lounge was beautifully decorated, as was the bar. I felt the owners were very lovely people, who were doing their level best to ensure a comfy stay.

Nothing really. I suppose if you don’t like animals, then the properties pet cats might put you off as they roam around the place, but they are friendly and adorable, so again, I thought they only added to the feel and character of the place.

Very quirky - love the decor. It might look a little ‘tired’ in places, but it is all part of the charm! Easy access to all the locations we intended to visit, but you do need a car! Very comfortable and the staff work hard to make your stay as enjoyable as possible.

Difficult to get good TV coverage.

It’s a Medieval house built in 1284, and is kept in an excellent condition. The dining room is very nice and clean. The food is very good.

Shower was virtually pointless, lack of water pressure. Even turning cold water on didn't help. Decor is past it's best

Nice big bedroom. Breakfast was good and the lady who served me was an absolute delight

Also setting off very early mornings , an excellent packed breakfasts were arranged.

Noticed some small areas like in bathrooms and lobby could do with a bit of TLC. Updating broken bath panel, missing shower curtain, cleaning more thoroughly in corners and under furniture, lick of paint, tidying up grouting etc.

Great stay at Maenan Abbey Hotel. We were visiting the area for a wedding at another venue up the road, so this was a very convenient location for us. It's an old building but comfortable. We were given a huge room, and had a well rested stay. Staff were friendly and helpful. Can't comment on the breakfast as we didn't have it. Thoroughly enjoyed it and would stay again.

Owners efforts to be the perfect host. All meals were very good , comfy bed

The walls are very thin and you can hear the neighbouring rooms. As it’s an old building the floors are very creaky, feeling awkward to move around early in the morning.

The hotel was in a great location, and the surroundings are beautiful. As some have said, the interior is a little dated, but it is perfectly functional and clean. The communal areas are well kept and in-keeping with the historical style of the building.

Impossible to get “normal” TV channels on the TV. Minor irritant which wasn’t worth worrying about by the time I found out.

Quiet and comfortable. Excellent breakfast.

Could do with some redecoration, but the hotel makes up for this with its cozy and peaceful atmosphere.

Beautiful old former abbey. Stately interior. David - the manager - is hard working and helpful. Karen is friendly and takes pride in her work. Great team. And an excellent breakfast!!!
