Approach with caution! Unfortunately, the King's Croft is the worst hotel experience I have ever had. They failed to let us know that there would be a party right underneath our room. It was so (so) loud, to the extent that the floorboards were shaking well into the night. No sign of any refund, as they brand themselves as an events venue.  I've tried to contact the hotel many times since to follow up on our awful experience, but no response. If you can, stay somewhere else. 

Very poor

Where do you start dont have room 6 it is i between two corridors there is no window there is a strange electrical pulse every 10 minutes the bed is like a sponge its has polystyrene tiles on the ceiling its truly dreadfull to get to the dining room you have to go outside god knows what happens iff its raining the food is edible just but wery strange stake pie with chips and mushy peas and gravey the cooked breakfast is tasteless dont eat the sausage its horrible the waiting staff were all ok the reception staff ard abysmal we stopped on the way to the lakes i cancelled the room on the way back nobody asked why or iff our stay was good absolutely no imterest this place is horrible avoid it 

Horrible 

Not a nice stay at all.
Got to stay in room 15 which had an office pan style light which lite up the room like an airport runway. Opened the window to vent the room which was ground floor and outside the window was the hotel bins. Food was terrible and breakfast was just eatable at best. 
Spoke to the front desk and the man was so uninterested. 
Would never stay again and would not recommend.


Wouldn’t stay again 

Went for our Anniversary, traveling with my wife's guide dog, the staff are fantastic and can't do enough for you. In the room was a dog bed and bowls and treats and poo bags for Orla. The meals are first class.
All the staff made sure my wife was safe at all times and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
A special mention for Amy the dog crazy young lady who puts the doggy treats into little bags and ties them with ribbon she's a diamond.

A perfect stay

We got married here in 2019 and couldn't have wished for a better day. The staff were attentive, food impeccable and very personal to us  we have since returned every year on our anniversay to dine and stay. This year I have to say was a very big disappointment. No familiar faces to greet us (yes I know staff change) however not one face we recognised. A bog standard hi, name of booking. Can we have your card details, here's your room card. Yes they have lots of weddings yearly but you would think they would go a tad extra for returning customers especially ones who continue to return each year to celebrate. Table booked at 7, greeted by a lovely waitress who couldn't do enough for us. Only us and another table in there, not like past years. No drinks menu apart from the obvious expensive wine! Food menu was not as exciting as others and some strange choices on there. Food was ok - nothing to boost about apart from the £17 price tag for a burger that was expecially pink. All in all very disappointed as we fell in love with KC as our wedding venue. Sorry to say we will not return for any future Anniversaries.

No personal touches at all

Booked a overnight stay, to attend a funeral. Booked via Expedia (executive  room) was shown to room 23, not executive,  lower ground floor, room appeared to have been  developed  into a hotel room. It felt 'strange',odd layout, the courtyard outside front door,  which needed a good sweep. Checked with reception,  they said its what Expedia  requested, but the happily changed  us to room 26. Executive. 
This was a huge room, underfloor heating, lots of space,  nice double  doors and good views.
WHY do hotels only  provide one chair in a room, please consider  placing 2 if a couple  staying.
Bathroom  had limited shelf space for toiletries  etc, please add another if possible, and a Bathroom  stool. A separate  towel  rail is a necessity,  there is a heated towel  panel, but you can't hang  all the towels  on it.
Bathroom  cleanliness  needs attention. 
Breakfast was adequate,  asked for soft poached  eggs, arrived not soft, waitress offered  fresh,  but I didn't want breakfast to get cold. Waitress very polite and helpful.
There was a wedding party  booked in, who arrived for breakfast in pyjamas!? It seemed to be acceptable  by management?🤔  it's not what we expected  to be honest .
Be mindful this  appeared to us to be primarily  a wedding and function  venue.
We stayed as attending  a funeral,  crematorium is 1/2 mile away. 


Good location ,close to crematorium 

A lovely Easter evening in the Brasserie, thanks to Matt for looking after us. Very polite and friendly. The grounds are also very well kept. We’ll be back! (Please consider becoming a dog friendly hotel). 

Lovely Easter visit

Visited the brasserie for a special birthday meal. I ordered prawn cocktail as a starter which had only small prawns, and accompanied with stale bread that you could bounce, smothered in a yellow, cheap margarine, very disappointing!. Cod lion for main course, this was priced at £18.50 for the main course. I was completely appauled at the food I received. The cod lion was so small, completely overcooked and dry, covered in what can only be described as tomatoe soup, served on a bed of grey mush and peas!!. This is truly the worst meal I have ever had!!. 

Extremely poor food

We had a 70th  and  75th  birthday party this weekend the staff were amazing  helpful and everything well organised.   The food was excellent  portions were plentiful and presented beautiful.  All our guests were delighted it was a night to remember

Birthday party

We booked for 9 of us family and friends for Sunday lunch to celebrate our Ruby wedding anniversary.  
Arrived on the hottest day of the year to be seated at our table in the restaurant. Lovely set up but far too hot in there. There were a few air con vents but of little use. Need to sort better air con out. 

Mainly looked after by Toni who was lovely and friendly.  Nothing was too much for her. Ordered a few starters which were nice and correct as we changed a couple of bits on 2. (Dont like dressed salad just plain) on the prawn cocktails. Nice kick to the Marie sauce. 

Mains lovely. Had to ask for loads more gravy.  Veg nice choice and plenty. Few sweets ordered and were lovely. 

Drinks average prices for venues such as the Kings croft. 

All in all a lovely day apart from the heat in the restaurant (oh and the ceiling had a lot of marks on. Could do with washing.)

Recommend the Sunday lunch menu. Nice for special occasions
