Aldercarr Hall

This is without a doubt the worst place we have ever stayed. Problems started as soon as we arrived. We were emailed and told about the contactless check in and how to enter our room. Well, after locating our room in the dark we found it was locked with no way of entering. The owner went through from the house and unlocked it. We then entered a freezing cold room which had NO working heating other than an electric fire. I wasn’t aware of the central heating working during our stay The shower was a trickle that was either too hot or too cold We didn’t go to breakfast as we were already aware we were not getting hot food. So a bed and breakfast that doesn’t do a cooked breakfast. Don’t be fooled by pictures you see online. That is of their house which certainly is not a hall and not the freezing cold, mouldy accommodation they have fooled people to book.

We went to use the pool with the kids, it was great. Pool was lovely and warm and so was the building. The whole pool area was very clean, tidy and well kept. Will definitely be visiting again as it can be hired by the hour so completely private and the kids could play with their pool toys with no worries at all. For us, it was perfect and reasonably priced as well.

Danny the owner was so welcoming & friendly, the rooms were immaculately clean and the surrounding grounds are stunning ! There is a substantial continental breakfast available. They even have a small pool which was nice for a morning swim before work. Would definitely recommend Aldercarr Hall

My partner and I have been a couple of times over the last month to use the swimming pool. We were suprised at the poor reviews as we have had good experiences both times and have recommended to friends and family who will be attending soon. The owner is friendly and wanted us to feel welcome. Although there is CCTV the privacy of having a pool to ourselves is very welcome everything is clean and a very easy to access.

We hired out the swimming pool today for the first time for an hour and the pool was amazing it’s been well maintained the cleanliness of the whole pool area and changing area was great. Great service easy to book highly recommend the best place we’ve hired out. We will definitely be back to book again. Absolutely loved it the kids had a great time.

Private hired the pool with a friend for the first time this evening. Hadn’t really done much research into the pool other than it looked like what we were after for an evening swim. I am particularly fussy about swimming pools, I have a real issue with things being clean. This, for me, was disgusting. The pool is surrounded by carpet which was soaking wet, you have to take your shoes off before going in but clearly this rule isn’t followed by everyone as there was mud on the carpet. Socks got soaked and feet then got filthy. I didn’t dare go in the toilet bare foot as the floor looked disgusting. It had a very ‘cheesy’ smell and the water didn’t look particularly clean. We got in and swam anyway, the water was fairly warm so that was a plus. There was blood in the side of the pool I noticed about half way through our swim. Getting out and changed is a mission as there’s nothing to put clothes on apart from the wet floor without being in view of the cctv camera. I couldn’t wait to get home and shower as I smelt like cheese, no other way to describe it. Won’t be going back, there are better private hire pools in the area.

Booked this venue after cancelling swim lessons to teach our little ones privately as an ongoing weekly event. First visit it was unbearably cold and even worse in the changing / toilet facility . Tried again the following week and the adults decided not to swim as couldn’t bear the cold . Now looking for another venue , shame as it’s so close to home and would have been looking to book this weekly ongoing .

Last minute night away , lovely welcome from owner showed us where we could park ,how to get to our room and chatted to us for bit,lovely man.
