Kathleen

When booking on line just over night stay , ROOM 9. Has no window. Terrible nights sleep. Plus the man on reception when booking in at 5.30. Was VERY UN HELPFUL, . My husband and I have osteoarthritis in the knees. I said we couldn’t do the stairs because of this. The man said he couldn’t do anything for us. We have stayed there 3 times and always have a chalet ground floor, Your man whom needs re training even though been with you for 14 years. I would not give him a reception job ever. Another basic point eating in the restaurant, requested again Worcestershire sauce for steak dinner 3 rd time no sorry we don’t use that. The young ladies said they never heard off it. Pls train waitress I had to get all this off my chest as it was manifesting too long. We stay at the Kings Croft for when we travel up from Suffolk to visit family. And like comfort and polite manners. Look forward to hearing from you Kind regards Kathleen Hoare You’re standaar

A really lovely hotel set in beautiful manicured grounds. Our room was large and appeared to have been really decorated and recarpeted. Without doubt, we will stay there again when we next visits Pontefract. One tiny negative was a cold sausages breakfast.

Lovely food, comfy beds, good access and parking, spacious bungalow. Pillows were a bit too high for me, 1 pillow was too low, 2 pillows too high. My own fault as I usually take my own. Lovely setting and views

Really nice, but could improve

The hotel on first glance is quite grand from the outside. Even inside is nice. The room was clean but the bathroom was quite tired. Build up of mildew at the bottom corners, the shower dial was broken only allowing for scalding hot or freezing cold, cracked tiles, and a sink that would take a long time to drain. The drinks were a little over priced and the bar staff kept giving the wrong drink. Cost me £38 for 5 beers and a whiskey. Breakfast was made to order with available toast, cereal, and drinks to help yourself to.
