First time staying at the Moat House. We had an unexpected room upgrade and we ended up in the Pagent suite which is a beautiful room with patio doors that lead onto the side of the canal. All of the encountered were very friendly but also professional. We had our evening dinner in the restaurant and the food was fabulous. This hotel is a gem. We will definitely go back.

Our second stay here and it certainly won’t be our last. Excellent Hotel. The only thing letting it down was the lack of USB connections in the bedroom. A minor point granted. The quality of the food is fabulous!

It was a briefi stay however we were impressed by the service from your staff and your chefs. We both have allergy to certain foods and everyone understood the seriousness if it goes wrong. The reception greeting was very polite and helpful on arrival. The other comment was that although you had a wedding taking place the hotel guests still received the utmost attention in the bar and restaurant which was excellent and not like a lot of hotel we have stayed where you get diluted sevice. Thank your staff and we will return. Kind regards Peter Mitchell
