"The water output in thw shower is not as strong as we would like it to be. The sink is clogged with hair from previous guests. We stayed for 2 nights and they did not refill our rooms with water. They took our small towels on the first day of cleaning but did not replace it with new ones."

"Great little find. Free parking, next to the bus stop, great Italian next door, staff really helpful and great amenities, what else could you need! Was 2 adult friend and teen daughter, was perfect 👌"

Hedgefield House Hotel

8/10 Good

"Hedgefield House is quiet, comfortable, and has great charm. The garden and grounds are beautiful. The staff are not at all intrusive, but very helpful. We had two nights only, but I'd have been happy to spend more time there, and to enjoy the place. On the downside, there is no restaurant, but you can't have everything! There was plenty of in-room refreshment. I have family in the area, and I hope to stay at Hedgefield House again on my next visit."

Michelangelos
