Holly Lodge Country Guest House

The photo doesn’t tell the full story. The room was cram. The bathroom was extremely cold. I mean below freezing. Tiny TV. No breakfast or any food. Generally poor.

Clean and handy. We arrived around 4pm on check in day, we were met by a young man who seemed to be a gardener or maintenance man. He was unsure what room we were meant to have but as there was a key in one door he suspected it was that room. We unpacked and had a knock at the door to say we should be in the room next door. As we had used the toilet and filled the wardrobe we asked if it was possible we stay in this room. After a phone call, the young man came back and told us it was ok to stay in this room. Room was clean and tidy, the bathroom was shabby but clean. We were unable to open the window to stop condensation forming overnight and after showering (there is a fan activated in the bathroom when the light is on). Our room looked bigger in the photo’s. Could benefit from a hook on the back of room door and maybe a shelf under the tv. Not much surface space for clock, book, phone, medication etc.

Very quiet area. Owners friendly and polite. Maybe worth knowing the post code on Maps takes you to a different property.

Nice quiet location Nice place. Just a little tired! Needs a few touches and it would be excellent!

We had a lovely stay here on our visit from Essex to see Newstead Abbey. The guest house was very clean, comfortable, and the owner was very accommodating with our late check in time! The property is off the main road in a really peaceful area. Thank you for a great stay.

Lovely location and nice and quiet. Quite small room and needed a bit of TLC but our visit was very short. Without breakfast we thought the cost a bit high but we needed the location for an early work start the next day.
