John, Evesham

Check in closed early short staff. Service in the restaurant slow although polite food was good. Woken at 1am by a person unlocking my door and entering my room. I advised the person it was not a good idea. He apologised said wrong room and left quickly. Transpires it was a member of staff finishing late and starting early. He had been given the wrong key and room number. He apologised at bfast. Not the point very poor situation to allow to happen, I’m pretty unhappy about it and complained at check out, again no staff and spoke to an events team member. Told the manager would contact me.. Room mould on the bathroom ceiling and mixer tap plumbed the wrong way. So hot was cold etc. against regs imagine a blind person or child using the tap. To top it off electric car chargers a joke. App didn’t work although on this occasion not the girls fault. Summary very disappointing.

Beautiful estate house and gardens. Pros: - Superb staff, attentive, friendly and efficient - Relaxing environment - Cons, to improve: - Mismatch conference furniture in the guest lounge made it look unloved. - Hallway carpets would benefit from a clean -

Dartington Hall is absolutely stunning, but, sadly some areas lack attention. We've stayed before, and had the same challenges... We love the place, but.... The bed (again) was like trying to sleep on Brighton beach, the decor is very tired, it could do with some tlc, but, to be fair, it a very old building, the upkeep must be astronomical.. There were no towels, we had to ask for some, Although the shower room is tiny, the water was piping hot (when it eventually comes through) and the water pressure in the shower was excellent. The White Hart is such a lovely place, the food is to die for, the staff are really friendly, and attentive. The buffet breakfast is excellent too. The Barn cinema is lovely too, and there is a issue, I didn't sleep well because of this. Even a mattress topper would have helped a bit, next time i will take one with me 😊 Excellent value for money, will be going again soon!

Absolutely lovely place. Rooms were great.Beautiful surroundings.Only down side was that we arrived at 1pm, check in was 3pm.Had planned to go to The White Hart Inn, for lunch and drinks,only to arrive there and be told, due to winter staffing, they were not opening until 5pm. I suggested that maybe having a sign on the road advertising that they were open from 8am, should be removed/ amended.

Such a beautiful place to stay! On the Dartington Estate. So peaceful and quiet. It had the feel of an old college - how I imagine an Oxford Uni college house to be. My room was huge with a queen size bed, tea and coffee making facilities, toiletries, lovely towels and robes. It wasn’t en suite - too old for that! But I had my own lovely bathroom (shower only) directly across the little corridor. Great pub and restaurant at the White Hart across the little quadrangle through beautiful gardens. Great breakfast and friendly staff. Definitely staying here again! Did I mention incredible value for money?

The estate is very pretty and has lovely grounds to walk around. The accommodation is lovely. There are a couple of places for food available. The only downside to our stay was that it was Burns night and it was a very limited menu,given only 3 options. Ideally when booking in we could have been advised. The food was very nice but due to the options I personally did struggle.

The estate is beautiful. The breakfast was very good. We enjoyed our stay but the the hotel could do with some maintenance. You could not turn off or turn down the heating so it was too hot in the bedroom on the first night. The TV is very small and the screen was slightly damaged, and the toilet roll holder was falling off the wall. 10am checkout is too early!

I had to ask for coffee capsules, milk, shampoo and bathmat as forgotten to leave any in room. Only one glass given for water in a double room. Furniture quite battered looking and in need of some TLC. Long mirror on wall, but in the darkest corner of the room where there was no light. Coffee machine's water holder had no lid and a broken base and does not work very well so could do with a replacement. Sink fills up with water with no plug in when washing hands. All in all a lovely spacious room which could just do with some attention and tweaking to make it really special. White Hart was lovely and staff very helpful and friendly. Breakfast was tasty and plentiful. Food in restaurant good. Hotel users discount card needs updating as apparently unable to use in bar restaurant anymore. It was pointed out to us when we showed it that the symbol of the white hart had been blacked out but the word bar was still in the wording. Not clear at all! Gardens and great Hall were lovely though and overall we enjoyed our visit.

The room was small and looked and felt like a student college room rather than a hotel room. It was basic but clean and comfortable. The breakfasts at the White Hart were good but the quality of the food, wine and service in the evening were very variable. The same dish (chicken) was excellent the first time but the second time around was much less so. The buildings and gardens are what make Dartington Hall special and it would be well worth tolerating the deficiencies just to see them.
