    The heating was on full blast during a rather warm December. The breakfast was badly made and there was nothing in the line of a continental. The brown armchairs in the bar and sitting room area and dining chairs are souless and horrible to sit on.

    The staff were all lovely Most of the decor was pleasant and in keeping with the age of the building. Our room was lovely, with 2 windows and an enormous bathroom.

    Mattress was awful. You can see the dips on either side where it has sank and you could feel every single spring. Both of us had bad backs the next day. Needs replacing as soon as possible. Also no microwave as shown in the photos.

    Very big cottage yet living room area felt really cosy. Very clean throughout. Nice to have a dishwasher too! Netley Hall grounds were lovely and cottages were far enough away from the main building so there was minimal noise considering there was a large wedding on when we stayed!

    A stunning building - but bring your own pillows, and eat before arrival
    • Leisure trip
    • Couple
    • Deluxe Double Room
    • Stayed 1 night

    The pillows in both rooms were very thin - thank goodness they supplied 4 per bed - but even then I thought about asking for extras. WiFi is patchy at best, and non-exitstent in some areas. The dining rooms are lit very brightly, and so lack atmosphere. The bar has horrible cheapo "grey" - and very dim - lighting which makes it (sadly) an unpleasant place to be. A very easy fix with better lightbulbs, and a nice standard lamp or two. Food and drinks were really nice, and decent quantities, but we felt they were overpriced for what you got.

    We stayed in two different rooms, over two nights. Huge rooms, a beautiful building with a real "wow" factor. The "superior king room" with the private pool and jaccuzzi were really special - absolutely enormous. The staff were all very polite, friendly, and helpful. Breakfast was fine, but nothing to get excited about. The hotel is set in some nice grounds, worth a 15-minute walk around. Very peaceful.

    It’s a bit tired in places but typical of this type of accommodation. It doesn’t detract from the enjoyment.

    Loved the building and the setting. Room and bathroom were big, bath especially so. Breakfast excellent.

    It did feel a bit sparse, the lighting was poor, maybe a couple more lamps in the lounge would have helped. There is no full length mirror, or a mirror where the decent light to do your make up. Could have done with a mirror in the bathroom.

    The main house looked very grand. The cottage was spacious

    A lot of updating has already been undertaken. It is a wedding venue and accordingly a lot of effort has gone into the public areas and dining rooms. Some small points: the lighting in the bar is very subdued, too much so for our liking, and the mirrors in our room were set too high for smaller people! The coffee machine at breakfast was a bit of a challenge...

    Lovely building, large room and bathroom, very good evening meal and breakfast. The chef clearly knows what they are doing. Beautiful setting in large estate, well-appointed outdoor sitting and eating areas, good parking.

    Lighting in the bar was too subdued. Used to be the billiards room, they've kept the atmosphere as such but the central table lighting is ok for a billiards table but not for the bar. Just my thoughts and it's only a minor detail. Doesnt detract from the ambience of the hotel as a whole. Just bring the lighting up a bit. Us oldies cant read the menu in the dark.

    Arrived in the evening lovely welcome from staff. Entrance hall had amazing chandelier and stained glass ceiling. We had dinner in the restaurant which was excellent. Encrusted lamb to start and steak for main. Waiter was attentive and first class. Thankyou. Breakfast was delayed longer than normal, 40 mins, but was excellent when it arrived. Rooms are huge beds very comfortable. Lovely place. Excellent value.

    The rooms had a state of disrepair. One of the radiators was very hot and could not be turned down as the regulator had fallen off. We could only open one window. The others appeared to be painted shut which is also a safety issue. Several pieces of furniture lacked some of the handles. The cold water tap was loose and so was the door handle. A large part of the grounds were inaccessible due to a wedding the next day which reduces the overall experience. It was a very short walk. A full carpet in the bathroom is unsanitary.

    The house is beautifully situated. The staff was friendly and helpful. The breakfast was nice. The overall level of cleanliness was high.

    the internet was not working in the cottage when we arrived I had to go all the way back to the reception to tell them as there was no phone signal so I could phone, about 2 hours later maintenance showed up and fixed it. The bed was not very comfortable very lumpy mattress . The last day we were there we had no TV reception even after maintenance came to look at it. It was still not working 24 hours later when we left.

    It is in a nice and quiet. There was plenty of room the lounge area and bedroom were very large. The heating was good the whole cottage was kept nice and warm.
