The Good Hotel Guide is the leading independent guide to hotels in Great Britain & Ireland, and also covers parts of Continental Europe. The Guide was first published in 1978. It is written for the reader seeking impartial advice on finding a good place to stay. Hotels cannot buy their way into the Guide. The editors and inspectors do not accept free hospitality on their anonymous visits to hotels. All hotels in the Guide receive a free basic listing. A fee is charged for a full web entry.

Good Hotel Guide Review
The hotel experts at the Good Hotel Guide
In a 'beautiful' setting, Adam Moore's dog-friendly country hotel in an 18th-century sporting lodge looks out over the hills and is surrounded by trees. Past fire-warmed sitting areas, 'perfectly pleasant and comfortable' bedrooms are supplied with home-made shortbread, fresh coffee and organic toiletries; a garden suite has a conservatory and private garden. Guests sensitive to noise (an A road runs close by) should ring in advance to discuss best room options. Dinner has good options for vegetarians and vegans; breakfast is 'excellent'. Arm yourself with the hotel's richly informative guide to walks before striding out, or just relax: a Finnish sauna cabin and hot tub are in the grounds.
