Top The Herdy Shop Hotel Reviews

Rydal Hall Christian Retreat

8/10 Good

"The the property and gardens, of course are phenomenal. This is an older. estate property so some issues can be expected with the conditions of the finishes. Unfortunately, with us being seniors, it was very difficult for us to get our luggage to the third floor by stairs. The size of the rooms are also quite small but clean. Furniture in the room was appropriate for the period and comfortable. The staff was very helpful in trying to resolve outside issues such as Parking in town which is not their responsibility. So that was very much appreciated. Breakfast was very good. We also had dinner there from a selected menu and it was good. This property had no TVs in the rooms. Wi-Fi was good."
