Beautifully decorated building with very friendly staff. We met with family for Sunday lunch and had to wait 1hr 45 minutes for our food to arrive, TOTALLY unacceptable. If the kitchen can't cope with a full restaurant then they should not book out all their tables. Heaven only knows what happens in summer when they add the garden tables ! If we hadn't been staying the night we would have walked out. Frustratingly we were offered no apology or recompense even paying £4 per portion of bread to stave off our hunger ! We were upgraded our room because their building works had encroached onto it, however we were still woken at 8am by the noise if the builders, not what anyone wants when retreating to the country overnight, not were we forewarned that building was being carried out upon booking. Disappointing stay. Naturally nobody asked if we had a nice stay when we left. What a shame all round as the venue is lovely.

Went there 22nd of february a table for ten my my 70th birthday .Been in hundreds of restaurants in my life but this was one of the worse . we were presented with the very limited menu and approched three times in two minutes asking if we could hurry up and order as the chef was waiting to go home . this was at 7 pm!!!! after being badgered to hurry up we were presented with sub standard food .My three inch square of wafer thin steak looked lost sitting on its own. and when i asked if anything accompanied it i was presented with a dozen mcdonald like fries 15 mins later after the steak was cold . i asked if they did a side salad and was then brought a small bowl of just iceberg lettuce!!!!!!! My family didnt fare any better either . Thank god my son brought a birthday cake in of we would all have left hungry and dissapointed .. Ten tiny inadequate dinners ,and i use the word dinners loosely for £ 300.No wonder the chef wanted to get home quick before the complaints started rolling in.No one complained as they did not want to spoil my birthday surprise but it was outrageous and i dont know how they get away with it.Give it a wide berth .i saw it got good reviews.. Who by i wonder? People who have never eaten out before. I could have been worse i guess if it hadnt been my 70 th birthday and been my 90th it could have been my last supper

We have now been to the Crown for my birthday for the 4th year on the run . This year before we booked we took the advice from Rob Abbey ass manager and booked the room that offered a mattress topper which was great advice because the wife likes a soft bed and this was perfect as was the room . The evening meal was fantastic with very helpful waiting staff. The highlight for me of our stay for the previous 3 years has been the fantastic breakfast but unfortunately this year we were let down by the cooked breakfast. I asked for easy over eggs but the yoke were not runny and the bacon was burnt on one side and cooked on a grill pan that left a taste off BBQ Burger . I think the chef knew what he had done with the bacon because he or she put the burnt side face down to the plate with the sausage on top of the bacon and eggs on top off the sausage . Everything was wonderful for our night star Staff, evening meal , room but unfortunately the cooked breakfast was a let down.

Recommended Very nice place great location. Staff very attentive and friendly. Food was excellent lots of choice including breakfast options. Room was spacious but think it maybe a little warm in summer months as no air conditioning. Overall stay excellent will definitely return and recommend to friends

Won't hurry back Very underwhelming considering what we paid. Issues with heating when arrived, were resolved within an hour. Initial booking was showing as single occupier, had phoned / emailed with an update to make it 2 people but had not been picked up. Breakfast selection was very limited, table half empty, initially no pastries, Juices etc and had to wait 45 minutes for a cooked breakfast.
