Can’t fault it. We took our three dogs and it was great to be at such a dog friendly hotel. The food was great, the room was a lovely size and had the personal doggy touch of three bonios waiting for our dogs! Beautiful grounds, with a river at the bottom of the property which our dogs loved walking along and playing in Great location for dog walking, with some lovely walks minutes away by car Staff were very friendly and helpful. Will be recommending to friends and will be returning!

Right on the side of the A377 a great location. We were there for a friends wedding and they did an amazing job of catering for everyone and supporting the happy couple

This was the 1st time away with the pups we chose the Fox hounds because the reviews leaned towards a very tolerant policy of the 4 legged guest. We weren’t disappointed at all. It’s a relaxed haven set in magnificent countryside with truly lovely staff. From the moment I called to book spoke with Stephan who was ultra accommodating to the very last moment we felt completely at ease with our little hounds. Breakfast was delicious with attentive but discreet staff present fabulous buffet of an above average selection all beautifully prepared. We also had dinner in the restaurant the food was outstanding. The 1st night I had the venison. A healthy portion cooked to perfection totally melt in the mouth. We also had the fish special the following evening which was truly amazingly good. Mega compliments to the chef! A wonderful few days away we will certainly return if we can!

We enjoyed a family Sunday lunch today at the Fox and Hounds Carvery, which exceeded our expectation. The meat was beautifully cooked, the vegetables delicious and all the trimmings just right. My daughter commented that it was like a Christmas Dinner! We visited the restaurant for Sunday Lunch a few months ago and it was OK but not outstanding, today we all agreed that it was outstanding. The staff were very attentive and accommodating towards our 3 yr old granddaughter. After lunch we strolled through the grounds down to the river and then made use of the outdoor games and drank coffee in the garden. Thanks to Tom and Ruby and all the staff. We will be back!
