Had our wedding here very recently and were very pleased with everything. The staff were extremely accommodating and helpful. The wedding coordinators and staff couldn't do enough. We enjoyed our stay in the lodges - as did the family. The food was brilliant and everyone had a great weekend. They even managed to deal with the usual problematic family members with discretion and the utmost professionalism! Thanks again.

Having visited and enjoyed the market town of Louth a couple of times over the last few months we booked the Priory Hotel for an overnight stay - and happily its ideally situated just a short walk to the local brewery’s Gas Lamp Lounge! As many other reviews have described.. the Priory is a building with a lot of history and a very warm and friendly welcome. It’s deceptive too, a bit like Doctor Who’s Tardis it seems bigger on the inside than outside. Downstairs there’s a room for all situations including an entertainment area with a bar The furniture and decor in the dining and sitting rooms compliments the age and historic interest of the building. Upstairs the room we had was clean and warm and a throwback to days gone by. Outside, the facade is a joy and the garden and surroundings feel Victorian in outlook. The car park makes the visit even better I hope the Priory goes from strength to strength - we need places like this to enhance our lives! Thanks to Paul and all his hard working, polite and caring staff for a memorable stay. Pretty sure we’ll see you again in the New Year. 😊👍

The staff were friendly and the actual hotel was quite elegant. The grounds were amazing, and there were plenty of lovely places for photos with colourful flowers. We ate dinner in the hotel and the presentation of the food and the quality was excellent. The steak was cooked to perfection. The mushroom risotto wasn't quite as good as it had some crunchy bits of rice in it. It needed about 10 minutes longer on a slow heat, and then it would have been perfect; as it wasn't that hot either. This hotel boasts that it has a spa, swimming pool, and lots of different spa room experiences. Normally, when you use the leisure facilities connected to the hotel that you're staying in, they provide towels free of charge. Not this one. We walked over with our swimwear and room key card to be told that towels were £1 each. We explained that we didn't bring a wallet, money, or a phone to pay with. We asked if they could charge it to our room. They couldn't!! They said that you can use the one in your hotel room or walk back to the hotel reception and they'd give us them. Not helpful at all. Then, we went in to find the two foot spa's didn't work, and when I said it to the leisure centre manager, his reply was ' I know as I reported them last week'. But not a sign on them to say that they weren't working! Overall, the hotel needed a bit of a spruce up; but they made up for it with friendly staff. We paid to play a 9 hole game of golf and the staff in the golf shop was amazing.

Just a heads up, dolphin rooms is actually a house that has been converted into rooms, which is attached to the Dovedale hotel. You have to check in at Dovedale and meals are also served there. On arriving in our room, we found it clean and modern. Bed was extremely comfy with nice form mattress and pillows. There was tea/coffee making facilities and an iron and ironing board. My only issue with the room was that there wasn’t any storage apart from an open wardrobe area. No drawers or bed side table with drawers, but as we were only staying one night this wasn’t a massive problem. Breakfast was nice, quite small and had to pay an extra charge of £3 for large breakfast which was basically an extra sausage, slice of bacon and tomato. Also there was no cereal, fruit, yoghurt or juice etc laid out for people to get before cooked breakfast, so weren’t sure if we could request these as well as cooked breakfast. Overall its a lovely place and good value for money. Would stay here again.
