Didn’t get the room we booked

Had an awful, overpriced stay at the Mole but the main fault was with hotels.com as we booked deliberately to go into the Manor House but on arrival got shoved out into a room above self catering cottages. Carpark and restaurant nowhere near. Didn’t get to enjoy any activities as all fully booked by the time we arrived and felt quite awkward and isolated. Unfortunately one of us has a serious bladder issue and seeing your loved one walk 20 minutes back to a room wetting themselves is not romantic. Room itself looked tired, damp in the corners which smelt and wallpaper lifting everywhere. Dirty carpets and bathroom was mouldy all round the bath. Normally wouldn’t care but after spending nearly £500 for three nights - I’m not impressed. Only positive would be the staff, all amazing and a real asset to the venue. Fit, active people, you will love it here. Others, you won’t at all, families you will need a lot of money to keep kids entertained!!!

Beautiful place with lovely restaurant staff. However, communication with the resort was very poor—I emailed them multiple times and never received a response. Additionally, their method of charging my bank card was incredibly bizarre, resulting in a double charge and unnecessary complications.

Stunning views and peaceful.

We stayed 2 nights in an estate room just me and the hubby, then our adult kids and my parents joined us Friday to Monday for my 50th birthday and we stayed in a four bedroom valley view lodge with a hot tub. We were very lucky as had sun the whole time we were there. Room was lovely, lodge was amazing. Lodge was fabulous inside and out and the views were amazing. Stunning views everywhere, the whole place is so well kept and beautiful. Activities for those who want them, we tried archery. Inside pool was large and nice but parts of it could do with a little tlc, however I wouldn’t mark it down for that because everything else was so good. Outside pool wasn't open yet. Staff were very friendly and accommodating. Holly on reception was brilliant and super helpful and Shelby and James that did the archery with us were really lovely. Will definitely stay again.

Wonderful resort with great customer service

Great family resort with beautiful gardens. We had a room overlooking a lovely garden that is great when you have pets and a small patio area to sunbathe. Breakfast was great and restaurant food ok. The Exeter Inn a few mins walk away is pet friendly and food is excellent. Indoor pool area was lovely and not very busy. Great fitness room as well.

Lovely hotel

Lovely hotel. Clean and tidy. Food at the hotel was good. Only negative was that I dropped my earring on the floor pulled the bed out and found loads of bugs, made me itch once I found out I had slept next to them. Just hope none have come home with me.

Overall, we had a good stay at the Mole Resort. 3.5 stars ⭐️ There was a lot of activities to do, inside and out. The leisure facilities were a little outdated, however they were usable. The Jacuzzi was cold and the sauna was very small. Our room was great, as was the Manor. We stayed in the Manor Snug. Unfortunately the bed and pillows were very hard which meant we didn’t sleep the best. The food was amazing for us both, no complaints from us. We ate dinner and breakfast there. The servers were very attentive and friendly.
