The Dorrington

Arrived at bar and staff were very helpful and polite. Room was very tied and in need of some deep cleaning and a coat of paint especially the radiator which was very rusted all across the front. Cannot work out where they had taken the pictures of the hotel rooms and Areas??. On also to stay if you like a bit of a bar atmosphere and noise from the elephants moving around at 02:20 in the morning above our room 3 for nearly an hour. Overall price was comparable for condition of the room.

It’s been running for years, lovely building but never really managed to have a soul to it. Inside, clean and spacious, good beer selection and Kingfisher on draft which is quite unique and very nice. There is a cafe part of the building, food looks nice and as I say, nice and clean. There is a nightclub attached but no sure how busy that part is if still open to be honest in the current climate. Accommodation is good, clean and reasonable with parking. We have put friends in here and they said it was ok, breakfast also ok and no complaints. Is it a destination, maybe not, but is it good for a pint or a snack, or to stay over when in the area - yes

Stayed here for one night with family, and have to say it was a comfy night, the hotel is in the town and close to everything. Tom was very polite and welcoming and even showed us to our room, which is something that I've never experienced before. It is very reasonably priced The rooms were ok, they were clean and comfy beds but the room could do with a bit of a refresh. Other than that I had no issues at all. I would stay again 😊

Absolutely disgusting, filthy dirty, dusty dirty pillows & beds. Very bad smell, I wouldn't even leave my cat there. Very rude owner told us to leave as we complained about the room. We was staying there the night before my Daughters wedding & had to find another venue last minute. Will NOT or never stay there.

We booked to stay at the Dorrington (two adults two children) as we were attending a wedding in nearby castle heddingham we didn’t need anything to fancy and just booked a family room for a bargain of £75. However upon arrival the friendly manager text me to let me know we had been upgraded to the cottage (just two mins down the road) so unsure if it always comes under the Dorrington and can’t speak for the other rooms. But it was a lovely, clean, fully equipped new inside, gorgeous cottage. With two bedrooms, a kitchen and lounge. I could have easily stayed here all week! Would definitely visit there again. And definitely recommend if your staying for a wedding nearby. Thanks again for the upgrade and lovely stay.

I booked a family 'Room' for 2 adults and 3 children in July 23, as we were visiting to attend a wedding at the castle nearby. I paid £250 for us all for 2 nights. We were expecting a room with 2 single beds a double and a sofa bed. Which I did think the price was a bit steep, however I booked it as my step daughter and I needed to be close to the castle due to being bridesmaids. However upon arrival, I paid the balance and was greeted by 2 lovely ladies, at midnight, who provided us with our key and very clear instructions on where we could park and where our accommodation was. It was not even a 2 min walk to the side of the pub, it was called The Savoy and we stayed in room 1. Though when letting ourselves in, we only then realised we had a whole apartment, with 2 rooms, 3 single beds and 2 double beds in total, one bathroom with a bath, shower and toilet and a on suite coming off of the master bedroom, a lovely living room, dining table and kitchen area, which had a fridge freezer, dishwasher, kettle and condiments... if I had knows it was more than a room with a kitchen, I would have taken my own cereal amd milk etc, but there is a little shop right next door if needed. There is no cutlery, tea towels or bowls etc, so if you have this apartment be sure to take them if needed. Only think I would advise to make the apartment stay better, is to add WiFi, though this wasn't a massive problem as we were only staying for 2 nights and wasn't in there much due to the wedding. I enjoyed my stay and would definitely book again, thank you
