We have been here four times now and each time we are not disappointed. The food is simply excellent. The rooms are comfortable and modern. The service is excellent - they always remember us. The value for money continues to be brilliant. We sent our son and his wife there too and they recognised the surname! They had a fabulous... More

We stayed here whilst at a wedding nearby. It is a pleasant enough place and our room was large and comfortable. The welcome, via a shabby porch, by a middle aged man was less than enthusiastic as if we were intruding on something more important and no help was offered with our bags. The breakfast was very good, we stayed... More

What a shame - so much potential yet what a disappointment.... From the grotty entrance porch to the breakfast served by a young teenage boy in his pyjamas, this was such a let down. And so unnecessarily! The setting is quaint, the bathroom was beautifully finished - yet some of the simple things just so wrong! From the appalling grammar... More

We are very sorry that you were not 100% happy with your stay at La Fontana. We always take complaints very seriously and are taking some of your comments on board. We are sorry that you felt we lied to you about the conservatory but this is a conservatory that has been boarded and insulated for the comfort of our... More

Arrived late(ish) on a Sunday evening after watching Birmingham City beat Arsenal in the cup final, magnificent stuff, sorry I disgress. The place was locked barred and bolted no-one home at 10:30pm, panic set in as the prospect of sleeping in the car on a late February evening in Britain did not inspire me, there were some telephone numbers to...

We stayed on night at the Fontana and ate in the restaurant. As soon as we walked in the door I knew it was a mistake to have booked here. The reception looked shabby and unclean. The owner was there and kind of grunted at us. The place looked like it hadn't been hoover for a while and the tables... More
