Comments and Reviews
Nice setting, horrible room
  2 / 10
As a venue for events, Arrow Mill is superb. The food is excellent and the staff (generally) helpful, the setting is beautiful with great views. The ground floor of the building has been very well restored and feels welcoming.

Unfortunately, the room on the top floor (where we were placed) was absolutely attrocious. There is no lift (ergo no disabled access) so you have to lug your baggage up several flights of stairs, which for me was difficult, with having a heart condition, and when I saw the room I could have cried - it was probably the poorest hotel room I had seen anywhere - worse than some £25 a night B&B's I had stayed in. The furniture all looked tired, the bed felt ancient, the decor was poor and the bathroom - disgusting. The shower was filthy, covered in mildew and when placed at head height had no flow of water - you had to crouch down and use it hand held, and even then I could have passed water faster myself. All for the supposedly 'reduced' rate of £65 because we were attending a weekend function! Would I stay there again? Never!

Exceptional Value
  9 / 10
Stayed for a wedding function and took advantage of their special two night stopover. A truly stunning setting and a fascinating old building. The food was superb, the service polite and efficient - nothing was too much trouble. Accommodation is comfortable and the decor is in keeping with this lovely old building. I shall return, probably with someone elses wife and my fishing rod.
