One night stay at the property before our flight from Heathrow Airport, lovely place and facilities for what our family of 4 needed. Food at the restaurant was outstanding especially the Sunday roast definitely recommend the property and restaurant and would use the property in the future as Heathrow Airport was close by and easy to access.

Staff members were very helpful and friendly only reason I rated 4 stars was because the room was not heated enough

Overnight stay for Theatre
Very welcoming and loverly accommodation in a great setting. Perfect for our trip to the theatre in Hayes. Enjoyed an excellent meal in the restaurant. No breakfast in the restaurant as doesn’t open until 12 but cereal, croissant, and yoghurt provided in the room which suited us.

Lovely spot but needs a bit of a tidy up - no towel holders in bathroom, no hairdryer, carpet needs a good clean.

Great little place, will happily visit again
We booked the Honeymoon / Junior suite for 2 nights, it was lovely, just as the pictures showed. The view from the room was an uninterrupted view of the canal and was delightfully peaceful. You step straight out on to the edge of the canal and in to the garden of the pub, which is great to sit and enjoy the sun and passing barges, boats and wildlife. The food in the pub/ restaurant is very good and very reasonably priced. We happened to be there fore the hottest days of the year to date, so the lack of aircon was a bit of a shame, but the owners do go out of their way in setting up fans in rooms which are very welcome. Be mindful though, if you are booking for a Saturday night, the will be music playing loudly outside as the pub is a local hotspot, this does finish before midnight and you are warned by the owners in advance of your stay. We received and email regarding this and a follow up phone call.

When we arrived to check-in, no one was on the property to let us in. No one answered the phone. We were not made aware there was a check in by time. We ended up staying another hotel.

Great location and friendly staff and I met the friendly locals. My room was lovely on the canal boat. I would have preferred a hot cooked breakfast but there was no option unfortunately! Lovely walks close by and I would recommend this hotel.

I love their staff. We arrived late for our late check in (close to midnight) and they stayed later in order for us to not be homeless for the night. Even when we arrived late the employees Nigel and Lianne still stayed to help us with our bags and to get the extra bed ready. The room was clean and the area was beautiful. Although a bit isolated the area is very cute. The wood cottage is not used for alliterations but an exact description of the room, but with a modern twist. My friend and I loved this property will defiantly be stopping again when we travel.

A calming stay on the canal so close to Heathrow
We didnt realise our accommodation was going to be actually floating on the canal. Sometimes you could feel the movement of the water. Unfortunately you could also hear the residents of the two adjoining properties also moving about, using the bathroom etc. If you are a light sleeper, ear plugs would be a good idea. It had everything that we needed and we ate 2 nights at the adjoining pub, The WatersEdge, which was lovely. Very friendly staff. It was lovely watching the ducks, birds and the world go by. We walked around Little Britain Lake where there is lots of birdlife. Also just a 20min walk along the canal path to Tesco. Lovely calming area doesnt feel like central London. Only 15mins in a taxi to Heathrow airport (£23.80).

How anyone can give this place 1,2 or even 3 stars is beyond me. For the Price the quality is unbelievable, especially so close to an airport. I very rarely write reviews like this but I could not think of one bad thing. I drove down from the north and there was an accident and delay, arrived at 11pm lady on the phone very polite said not a problem. Showed me straight to the room and what a beautiful room it was. Bed Super Comfy, thick quilt and feather pillows. Good Shower with nice temperature and power Continental Breakfast hit the spot with Fresh milk in the fridge and some yogurts. Power sockets actually next to the bed and usable. This will be my first choice of hotel when I travel out of Heathrow now.

very nice!
I like that breakfast has been prepared in the fridge and can just enjoy it in the room. The heater was very warm! The room pretty much has everything you need except a hairdryer. The greatest thing about staying there was the view! It was right in front of the canal, so beautiful and quiet in the night time! And lastly, it was very easy to park as well! Will definitely go back again!

Fantastic from the first phone call. I had to find somewhere at the very last minute. I was travelling from cornwall and finding somewhere that could check me in after 11 wasnt going to be easy unless i paid a stupid amout for a little room. I call these guys and said i wouldnt be there until after there final check in time and they was more than happy to wait for me. I arrived over a hour past closing and they was true to there word amd waited. The room was fantastic for the price. It was comfy and have snacks and drinks in the fridge. Asl had real milk. (Winner) I would definitely recommend this place and i will be going bk on every trip in future
