    Lack of evening facilities as bar is not open if there are more than 10. People. You are unaware prior to arrival whether it will be open

    The property and landscape was excellent

    Signage was awful, hard to find your way around in the dark. Was told on arrival there was no food on offer due to low number of bookings, not really ideal after a long drive. Surely a message could have been sent that would have allowed us to eat before arrival.

    Great location, beautiful grounds

    I found it a little challenging once I got past the main security barrier to successfully navigate my way around the facility and find the reception centre for Hinxton Hall. To be fair though, I arrived late at night after a long day and the area was quite dark. If it had been during the day it would have been much easier however I'm sure many others would have turned up under these conditions. Maybe a little more information on that aspect may help somewhat.

    Beautifully cooked full English breakfast, just the way I like it. Room was perfect with a small but entirely adequate bathroom. Plenty of hot water and good shower pressure. The grounds surrounding the area are beautiful, lush and well maintained. Very peaceful and quiet, easy to get a good night's sleep.

    It's a conference centre, so not a hotel. The dinning room had a refectory feel (long communal tables), the bar was small and poorly stocked. Wasn't prepared for the tap water in the room not being drinkable and whilst there were water dispensers in the communal areas, it was inconvenient. Although there are limited hotels in the area, it did feel expensive.

    The room was very clean, the bed was really comfortable, the air conditioning made the room wonderfully cool and the staff were very pleasant- all were smiley and happy to help. Although very limited, the food offered from the bar in the evening was very reasonably priced. We would stay again but have more realistic expectations next time.

    Excellent staff, who went above and beyond for us on our stay. As a wheelchair user it's very easy to be made to feel like a burden and this wasn't the case. The room and amenities were excellent. Good breakfast and fantastic location

    There was nothing that we didn't like. Some electric vehicle chargers in the car park would be a great addition.

    We went to an air show at IWM Duxford and this place was an ideal location - very easy to travel to from the air show. All staff who we came across were polite, cheerful and helpful. Breakfast was great - good selection and all tasted fresh. Pizzas available from the bar were tasty and it was lovely to sit out on the terrace to eat and have a drink in the beautiful surroundings.
