Sewstern Hotels

"Parking was fine as the car park was almost empty, restaurant was closed and not likely to open any time soon. Bar was open but it only served bottled beer and it was £5 a bottle. Room and en suite was ok but a bit unloved. I had to go out to eat which was a pain as I really didn’t know the area and I definitely wouldn’t go back. "

"After a lovely welcome I was upgraded to a bigger bedroom which was light and airy with a really comfortable bed. I knew breakfast was in the room but there was a table and chairs and the fridge was packed with fresh milk, orange juice, yogurts and bread. There was a good choice of cereals, jams etc and there was fresh ground coffee, teabags and hot chocolate available. This is a 2 minute walk from the station and about 5 minutes into Stamford so really handy I had a meal in the restaurant on my second night which was beautifully cooked. This is a comfy, down to earth property and I would definitely stay again. Nelio the owner made my stay. He was friendly and informative and a damn good chef. The lamb was perfect and I got a jug of red wine sauce with it. Yum. We put the world to rights and I left feeling that I was a special guest not just someone occupying a room."

"Parking easy, absolutely dog friendly (not just dog tolerant as some “dog friendly” venues turn out to be). Friendly and welcoming attitude received from all staff from start to finish. Couldn’t fault any aspect of our two night stay."

"Really poor quality hotel. Dirty room, worn-out old mattress, and just a tired, drab hotel both inside and out. We booked for two nights but stayed only the first night as we couldn't face another night of poor sleep in a dirty room"

"Great location and parking. Staff friendly and good breakfast. It’s an old hotel so expect uneven floors in places "

"We had a king sized room on the second floor. Comfortable bed. Amazing views of the lake plus it was lovely to have a balcony with outside seating. It was easy to control the heating. Good self service breakfast."

"The staff were extremely helpful and pleasant. The restaurant was very good with some really good choices for dinner. The room was very nice ."

"Excellent as always. Rooms with character, spacious and comfortable, housed in historic building, evocative of an earlier era. Splendid bistro and breakfast room."

"Slightly tired property but still very comfortable. Beautiful grounds. Lovely spa facility. I'm looking forward to staying again. "
