Riverside Inn, Aymestrey

Sadly just a short overnight stop at this wonderful hotel with restaurant. A delightful place in a great location. We wish we had time to explore the surroundings but hopefully next time. We had a very warm and friendly welcome. Our garden lodge was accessed via steps but we had constant offers for assistance with the luggage. The room was very cosy and very well equipped. We had a large decked patio area which would be perfect in the summer for pre dinner drinks. The evening meal was fabulous with a great wine list. The breakfast was also good. We will definitely return and hopefully stay longer.

Friends had recommended The Riverside as a good place to eat so we decided to take a mini break, visit nearby Croft Castle, and stay overnight at the hotel. Our arrival was very welcoming and we were personally taken to our suite and shown where everything was. The suite was very clean and thoughtfully arranged with lots of space and yet feeling cosy too. The en suite had a lovely walk in rainfall shower - shower mat in the cupboard! Nice toiletries too. There was a good selection of teas and coffee and a lovely pot of homemade flapjacks along with fresh milk and a carafe of water in a very silent little fridge. Bedding was lovely and crisp and the bed very comfy. We had a relaxing drink in the bar after settling in. There is a selection of good wines by the glass along with zero alcohol beers for my husband. Dinner was outstanding and every course was delicious. Pride and care have been taken to ensure as much as possible is sourced locally - including from their own gardens and this is reflected in the quality of the food. Prices are reasonable and portions generous. Breakfast was a perfect start to the day - beautifully cooked scrambled eggs with smoked salmon and toast plus marmalade and jam - all homemade and super tasty. I had read some of the 5* reviews from previous guests on Trip Advisor so was quietly hopeful our stay would be a good one. It certainly was and we do wish the lovely people we met there all the very best in the future.

Impeccable I was made to feel so welcome from the moment I entered the premises. The room was so cosy and cute, with really nice touches of flapjacks, decent tea/cofee and luxury toiletries. The food was INCREDIBLE. I want to stay again!

It is rare to find a place where so much attention is given to ensuring the guests have an excellent experience on every front. I cannot praise and recommend this place enough. From the accommodation to the fabulous food, the owners provide a high quality of service. George, manages front of house with a natural charm and efficiency. This is the first time I have reviewed anything, but felt compelled to do share.

Consistently good This is the second time we’ve stayed and both times have been really good. George is a lovely host, the food is superb and the accommodation of a high standard. There are nice touches such as fresh milk and home made flapjacks in the room.

Very good - excellent food - comfortable room except for very little room between the bed and the wall! Staff very helpful especially for finding route through the floods!
