BEWARE Of Staying Here!!!! My husband and I had reservations for 4 nights during the Inkcarceration music and tattoo festival in Mansfield. We booked our stay in a cottage instead of the castle. We thought that this would be a nice and quiet place to stay instead of a loud hotel. Initial impressions were that the grounds were well maintained and very pretty. Went to check in and was immediately hit with the musty, moldy smell. Thought maybe it was because that part was very old. We were told that there would not be any staff onsite after 10pm and to call a phone number until someone answered. Got to our cottage (Thane) and experienced that awful smell again. We opened the windows to try to get some fresh air and discovered that the screens were missing, which led to a bunch of bugs making themselves at home. Furniture included a couch and a queen bed. Couch was definitely from a different era, and I’m not talking like 70’s or newer. Kitchen had a very old microwave, small fridge, and a sink. There was a small electric fireplace that didn’t work. Air conditioner did its job. If you do stay here please make sure that you have a working alarm on your phone because there isn’t an alarm clock. The bathroom was large and had a jetted tub with a separate small stand up shower. The shower had an overwhelming smell of mold and mildew, and there was no way that we were going to use the tub because it smelled even worse, had spiders in it, and brown streaks on the bottom. Bed wasn’t terribly uncomfortable, pool was nice but the waterfall wasn’t working. We had our own 2 person hot tub on a good size deck that had a table and 4 chairs, which was a nice touch. The wooden deck seemed to have a lot of rotted planks that felt unstable, so we tried to avoid stepping there. I do understand that this isn’t a 5 star resort, but at least clean the cobwebs in the room. My husband and I inquired about the terrible smell everywhere, cobwebs, and the brown streaks on the bottom of the tub. We were told that the brown streaks were from the well water and wouldn’t hurt us, and that everything there had a musty and moldy smell, but assured us that it was indeed very clean. They sent housekeeping in the scrub the shower and tub, but it was pointless. Restaurant was awful and overpriced. I want to say that I understand that the area is wooded and there are insects. Screens on the windows would have been a nice touch to try to avoid some of them coming in. I’ve had enough bugs and spiders for a lifetime, especially when they are on my pillow in the morning. If I could have afforded to just leave and try to find a different place to stay I would have, but we paid a lot of money for our accommodations ($1900) plus the tattoo and music festival had booked up a lot of hotels. In closing, I wished I would have watched a certain TV show which featured this “hotel” and how nasty it is. Think twice before staying here!!!!!! We won’t even think of returning or recommending
