Welcoming and comfortable.
Friendly and welcoming staff, excellent food, nice bar and dining room. We booked the deluxe room, the bed was huge! With steps to climb into it, it was very warm and comfortable. I felt the room was good value for money and would stay again.

Friendly and Comfortable
Stayed one night on a solo trip. Lovely location and views.
Rooms were comfortable and a good size. Clean and presentable.
Best thing about the stay was the friendliness of the staff.
Breakfast was a late addition for me and I'm glad I did. Good quality and choice.

Early family Christmas
We stayed 2 nights, visiting family for a pre Christmas get together. And whilst we didn't spend a lot of time at the hotel, when we were there the staff were friendly and helpful, the room was clean and warm and the breakfast excellent.

The staff were excellent. Very friendly,

We were here for my father's funeral and held his wake in the function room, and stayed overnight for two days.
Nothing was too much trouble for the hotel who made a difficult time much easier to bear.

Lovely short stay at this gem of a hotel.
The staff were all so friendly & really helpful throughout our stay. We were contacted beforehand to see if we wished to dine in on our arrival which was very handy. Lovely fresh food was most welcome after a long drive.
The bedroom & bathroom were spotlessly clean. Secure parking was available.
We would definitely stop here again !
Thank you team Sysonby Knoll.

Overpriced.
We stay at this hotel as we travel from Wales to see family and it’s the only hotel in the area which accepts dogs. I really don’t mind the hotel for a quick overnight. It’s just okay. I do think it’s very overpriced for what it is. I have between 60 and 99 hotel nights a year and for this price have stayed in much nicer places. The hotel is very dated and a little unloved. It’s adequate as opposed to comfortable. I will say though the staff are always really friendly and nice which is a credit.

A bit penny pinching for deluxe
The hotel is lovely the staff are polite and chatty. The owner makes some lovely garden ornaments that are for sale and honey which is a nice touch.
Our evening meal was delicious, our breakfast was small but tasty. We stayed in the deluxe room, which was lovely but being deluxe it would have been nice for it to have included bubble bath shampoo etc there was a body wash, but you really want bubbles in the bath.
There was no dry rose wine only sweet they said the Zinfandel was dry but I could only buy a bottle it was Very sweet.
The staff knew we were on honeymoon and didn’t even offer a complimentary drink, which kind of let them down a bit.
That aside a lovely stay, but slightly over priced in my opinion.
