The accomodation facilities in the room was a bit outdated and seem to have not left the 90's era. There was no mini bar or fridge in the room which would be a great assist especially when one has has a new born baby or a few months old with all their medicines and foods that need to be refrigerated....

Positives - Great breakfast, some great staff and pristine tablecloths in restaurant! Beautiful well kept gardens and idylic setting. Negatives - Rooms and communal areas were dirty/shabby and in dire need of some TLC. (Changed rooms but little improvement seen - damp patches on walls and in bathroom, double bed was two singles fastened together, dirty valance on bed in... More

We were three couples having booked a group on deal and then paying an additional premium for upgraded rooms that we were told we're " very nice" The Good|: Setting is amazing! Fantastic views from our rooms, tucked away and peaceful. Our partners enjoyed the golf but my husband ( who is a well travelled golfer ) thought that the... More

We got the £199 two night deal with afternoon tea upon arrival and a three course meal for one of our two nights. The main building is beautiful, though we stayed in the annex block (i.e. cheaper rooms!). The room was nice and spacious, though we did have some issues: ventilation in the bathroom was poor, the water from the... More

Hi, We stayed at the Highbullen Hotel for 1 night. Flies all over the place when we were trying to eat our sandwiches in the Drawing room, wrong sandwiches arrived in 1/2 an hour alter. Damp walls in the annexe rooms, dirty carpets, stained bath, unacceptable management behaviour, despite mentioning we weren't pleased on our arrival - this was completely... More

We stayed here for a full week in March and had a wonderful time. The food, the staff and the facilities were excellent. If you're looking for a large 'chain-style' hotel, this isn't it. But, if you want friendly personal service, with a certain old fashioned charm you'll love it. Breakfasts & dinners were all very good indeed. THe choice... More

My wife and I stayed for 3 nights, half board, including golf. It was our third visit to High Bullen We received a warm welcome at Reception from Marion, who was friendly and helpful throughout, as were all the other staff members. Our large room on the ground floor of the main house had decor best described as faded elegance,... More

This is an overdue review for a weekends stay at Highbullen in November 2011. My boyfriend and I decided to combine business with pleasure and book a three night stay at Highbullen after a business meeting. We didn't have any particular expectations other than the previous reviews we read which were quite mixed, but we hoped it would be better... More

This was an active weekend for nine families with young teenage children. We could not praise Highbullen highly enough. We took the Manor House rooms which are big, clean and comfortable, with spectaular views. The children were in a dormitory type lay out in the cottages and loved the freedom. The staff were fantastic - nothing too much trouble. The... More
