Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
Sandburn Hall impresses guests with its barn-style architecture featuring exposed brick and Yorkshire Tweed colors, creating an excellent ambiance throughout the hotel. Many appreciate the spacious superior king rooms and family rooms, some of which include a sofa, along with amenities such as fresh milk and bottled water provided in the fridge. The bathrooms often feature both a separate bathtub and a walk-in shower, with plentiful hot water; however, some guests have noted that the outdoor lights at night can be quite bright. Guests can enjoy the Tykes restaurant, which offers options for dinner and afternoon tea.

Really good Amenities and Quality

comfortable bedhigh qualitygarden courtyard
The bathroom impressed me with its high quality and cleanliness. There were nice touches, for example books and standard tea/coffee facilities. The bed provided great comfort. there was plenty of room and a nice bright view looking onto a garden courtyard. Food options were very good. I sampled the cream tea, breakfast, and an evening meal .
I noticed the outdoor lights at night are quite bright. They shone around the edge of the window despite the curtains.

Decent Hotel, but Some Issues

breakfast inclusionpayment query
The hotel itself is nice, but breakfast was a miss. I was asked about the time I wanted it, only to be told the next morning I hadn't paid for it? It seems odd to pay so much for a room and not have breakfast included. A hotel this upscale shouldn't be so cheap. The breakfast payment thing was annoying.

The bathroom had a separate bathtub and a walk-in shower. I also appreciated the plentiful hot water and big, fluffy towels. The room included fresh milk and bottled water in the fridge. It was a nice touch.
The hospitality tray in the room was a little sparse.

the architecture and fittings were to a high standard and tasteful.
i stayed one night for a party at the hotel and i thought that i can't see how the rooms can be priced at over ÂŁ200. there were no extras in the room, such as robes or wide selection of teas. the bed was huge but there was only one chair in the room for 2.
