The bathroom was a bit warn and in need of repair, just one or two things that let it down. We had. Meal included the first night which was lovely with a... More

Spent the weekend at Damson Dene as part of my birthday celebrations. The Reception area was great with large squishy sofas and a roaring log fire. The rooms were similar in style, some slightly smaller than others, all spottlessly clean, warm and cosy which since the temperatures plummeted and we had 6 inches of snow from Saturday overnight to Sunday...

We spent a weekend at the Hotel, it has great food and a good breakfast and nice views from the restaurant and bar. The staff were friendly. The tv reception is bad, so you can't really watch any tv. The rooms were small but had everything you require. There are leisure facilities we were going to book treatments as we... More
