This is a delightful little pub with rooms. I stayed there as part of a wedding party. The room was light and airy. Everything was spotlessly clean despite the quick turnaround on the rooms. The bed was comfortable too. The only word of warning is the thermostatic control. Our room was too hot for me to sleep very well and... More

two years on and it still looks like a building site. It is a wonderful spot but we have visited too many times to be greeted by poorly trained staff, dirty glasses everywhere, only one ale available (run out??? come on, get your act together), no crisps. Considering this is probably the most expensive bar in the area, I feel... More

We have just stayed for 2 nights with my in-laws, the accommodation was disappointing for the price charged. The staff who were serving in both bar and restaurant tried hard to please but were always under pressure as the the establishment felt understaffed. On the positive side the food at dinner and breakfast was very good despite no fresh fruit... More

I stayed last week with 2 work colleagues. The welcome was warm, rooms very well equipped - including the impressive walk in shower - and we ate in the bar area, with a comforting real fire. The food was first class, 4 real ales on offer, and the staff extremely attentive and polite. Very quiet rooms, with little passing road... More

We visited with a family group for a celebration lunch based on the recommendation of parents (who were part of the group and who had been several times before). We had booked in advance and were welcomed, shown our table and then, as it was an unexpectedly sunny day, had drinks on the terrace taking in the wonderful views across... More

Fantastic place to be when the sun shines. Lovely food and drink plus a good sleep with only a few small things away from 5 stars - no chairs in the room (8) although plenty of space, very few chairs in the bar to sit & drink before your meal and the staff are at times a touch stretched

arrival st the finch's arms was met with confusion over our booking we were told on the telephone we were booked into room 3 but were shown to room 1.It had a nice view of the lake but that was the only redeeming feature of what was a poorly equiped and rather shabby room for the price.We were told fresh...

Loved the beautiful location on a peninsula above Rutland Water in Hambleton village. The bar area very welcoming, stone floors, old furniture and leather settees. Real ales and friendly service. Outside patio which would be marvellous in good weather, but we missed that one. Staff seemed at a bit of a stretch at times, but worked hard to accommodate our... More

I had booked The Finch's for my partner and I on a special occasion. I'd heard good reviews over the years locally so thought it would the perfect place to go. I was wrong! We were taken to our table but apparently there'd been a mix up and people were sat at the table the waiter thought was ours. We... More
