Got potential.

Lovely area, friendly staff. Rooms a fair size but a little tired, could do with some TLC. Breakfast ok, came fairly quickly but again have had better.

Our stay was good but check in was a bit awkward. No one was there to greet us, and I had to phone the Expedia number to reach someone for help. The connection wasn’t good for the phone either.

Potential to be “Great”

My wife and I recently stayed at AbingPlough House. It’s a lovely period cottage with character and external cottage style thatched bedrooms forming a pretty terrace along side the main building. It’s run by new staff now for the last few months. I noticed that it was in need of a little TLC however, I spoke to the new manageress who I must say does everything from booking to cleaning, repairs and breakfast the best she could and was always at hand, she is very attentive to everything she does and is a credit to the business. After speaking with her I realised she’s not getting the support that she should from the business owner who is the letdown here. It would be supportive if the owner helped with supplying basic materials like paint inside and out just to freshen up also attend to the loose ends that I noticed. AbingPlough House is a good quiet relaxing place to stay for travellers or visitors to the area, it’s also set in a pretty countryside location. Like I said it’s a good place but, with a little support from the owner it will be a “GREAT PLACE” with a great manageress who has ambition to achieve.

The property was somewhat quirky, but in the ideal location to stay over while visiting the area for motocross. The owners were friendly and welcoming on arrival and at breakfast. One of the only things I can really pick a fault with is there was a really strong stale smoke smell in the bathroom which did hit you when opening the bathroom door, so could do with a freshen up and maybe an air freshener in there. The bed was really comfortable, the quilt / duvet was incredible too- I tried to find a label for where it was from to order one for home but couldn’t see one 😂. Overall a pleasant stay, and if in the area again we would book again.

I was put in here after the place I booked became unavailable. My 1st thoughts from Outside was is it unoccupied it’s so run down. The lady who greeted me was nice and gave me a key and instructions. The room was very old fashioned but clean a TV from the 89’s the kettle look terrible I used my own. The bathroom very small but brand new and quite good. Overall not great but one night just accepted

The Plough, no return

On arrival they couldn't find our reservation. When the lady finally found us, she rang what we can only assume was her husband to mention we had arrived. There was further confusion during the call and we heard the person on the other end of the phone asking "how much have they paid". On her response he said, put them in room 2. This was a family room, but we had booked the double deluxe bay view room. The room was comfortable enough, but quite an odd layout. Two entrances to the room, the longer way around entailed walking up a staircase with a very strong smell of damp. Then entering the room down some steep stairs, the room was in complete darkness and we struggled to find the light. The switch being a pull switch that is not near the entrance. The location is extremely quiet, not very much to do locally. An okay base for our visit.

Do not stay here!

The hotel was in total darkness and it was not until the next day you could see the state of the outside. The hotel posts pictures of years ago and frankly it’s fraud! We did not stop a second night and no recompense or reply to my email. The room is dreadful Pat tests out of date , mould in bathroom , dirty and dated . Curtains did not close and the bed was awful with primark pillows making it feel like you led on the pavement. Limited hot water and too much to mention ! It’s shabby and run by a Chinese couple that were so rude and have little English. Breakfast terrible and was left untouched. Do not stay in this hotel as you will not get what is advertised!!!
Getting to the room was terrible
