Satis House Hotel

Amazing building beautiful room it was so lovely to learn the history which you can read about in the beautiful book in your rooom.... seeing the ancient ice cave was very interesting and the staff are so lovely it's like coming home. Just lovely thank you all xx

We were the only people at this very interesting small hotel. We came for a night just to get away. The first thing to notice is the, quite frankly, bizarre artefacts throughout the inside. From a stuffed lynx outside our room to blackamoors holding lights up in the restaurants, with all manner of oddities - painted deer heads, half stuffed pheasants and strange portraits in between. We had a lovely room, which quickly got warm when the heating was put on. Four poster comfortable bed, and a lovely big bathroom with plenty of hot water and towels. Sarah looked after us and served our evening meal, which was lovely. She was happy to chat and told us some history and information about the village We slept well and had breakfast, which was fine, cooked and served by someone different, before we left. We did try to check out with a person, but unfortunately, despite ringing the bell several times, no-one came so we left a note and went! It's an amazing place. Really quite spooky - I would have loved to have had a proper look round and felt some its history properly. I'm a bit nosy so looked up who the actual owners are. Sadly, I was not impressed with what I found out about one of the owners and their legal battle with people over the years. It may account for why it was deemed ok to have some rather offensive statues in some public areas. However, for a night or two away, this is a lovely quirky place. Maybe get rid of some ornaments and redecorate a bit more tastefully though!

So cold and uncomfortable we did not stay the night. £10 for a rum and coke in an uncomfortable and foisty hotel. The owner offered to knock our bar bill from 59.50 to 40 but we ended up paying 59.50 and 120 for a room and everywhere was so cold we left and drove home. What was meant to be a treat night totally ruined. I Can see why we were the only customers to be honest. Shame used to love it here but has turned into a really strange place with a horrible feeling to it and so so cold everywhere with odd decorations. Left feeling rather ripped off.

What a poor hotel. Do NOT stay here if offered the Attic room. On approaching the hotel there is no signage. I arrived in the evening and it was dark. I eventually found the potholed driveway unlit and not even a security light on outside the entrance. I walked in and nobody was there. Reception was dark and uninviting with nobody there. I shouted for someone still nobody came. After hanging around for 15 minutes a lady turned up to check me in only to ask why I hadn’t rang the bell. What bell? It was hidden on the desk. Walking down a smelly corridor She took me to my room up a very very narrow steep staircase 28 steps no lift no help with my bags. This is your room, this is the bedroom, this is the mini bar she said and left. The carpet was filthy how she didn’t see it I don’t know. I went down stairs and told her to get it vacuum for my return. On further inspection of the room items in the mini bar were past their use by dates extension lead over door was a trip hazard empty toilet roll left in the draws. The door closer wasn’t fixed to the door. The bathroom was discussing mould around the bottom of the shower. The shower glass was smeared and dirty which really didn’t matter because there was no hot water in the morning to have a shower. The tap in the sink was nothing like the photo on the website. No wardrobe to hang your clothes. The menu is limited to 2 starts and 2 mains. I ate out. In the morning there was no one there to complain to. Awful hotel.

The building is old (!), so the rooms are high ceiling and large. The decoration is highly original and eclectic. Our room was ready on time and well appointed and clean and comfortable. We dined in on our first night. The meal wassail good and tasty, although there was a limited menu not he night. Breakfast was good and wholesome with a large choice, pleasantly served in another eclectically decorated room. The entrance to the hotel, off the main road is slightly difficult to see and the signage is not clear. The staff were all very friendly and went out of their way to be of assistance.

Wow what a 5 star experience! The Satis House is a beautiful property. It’s an old English home and when staying there you feel like you’re experiencing the quintessential English manor. The owners are so welcoming and accommodating! Join them in the restaurant and share a glass of wine and you will be regaled with stories of the property. Breakfast was made to order and fabulous! We can’t wait to go back!

Beautifully decorated and furnished but the rainfall shower head didn't work and water spilled out of the spray shower head. Apart from that perfect

We booked this as a dog friendly stay, after we had booked they advised that they had no dog friendly rooms available, we immediately contacted ******* who have been no help in helping us get accommodation or refund our money. The hotel have apologised and agreed they will refund our money but their hands are tied until ******* contact them…******* advise they have been unable to contact the hotel so cannot refund… we had to book alternative rooms an more cost

The property doesn’t have a lift I am disabled and had to climb a flight of stairs to get to my room was told no other room was available so had to go upstairs on hands and knees the banister was unstable and I felt a good push and it would give way I don’t think it would pass a health and safety inspection
