    Pros +

    • Staff were brilliant as was the food
    • Staff were very friendly and courteous. Room was excellent also the food was too.
    • Considering the time we visited the weather had left huge amounts of surface water overflowing from the passing river Ouse, the surroundings still looked amazing. The hotel is obviously very popular with the locals, and so very dog friendly. We were on a visit to see family, who are local, they also use the hotel for occasions. The team running the place are all very welcoming and attentive, they bring excellent hospitality and passion to ensuring everyone is well catered for. Excellent food is produced from a very well run kitchen with a good menu. This hotel must have some major events to cater for with a very sizeable restaurant and marquee for big functions, I can imagine in the height of summer with the passing river and marina. When we come to visit we will 100% be staying again.

    Cons -

    • Wifi was poor but not the end of the world
    • Everything was brilliant
    • Could not fault anything.

    Beautiful venue. Excellent food and staff in restaurant / pub and a brilliant pub quiz.

    Room could do with a cosmetic update. In room Milk, tea and coffee poor quality.

    8PhilipPosted on: 12-31-2025

    Great location, plenty of parking.

    Stairs a bit tricky.

    10LizziePosted on: 12-18-2025

    Lovely location, lots of attention to detail. Easy to find and lovely decoration.They have thought of everything. The rooms were spacious and well equipped with lovely big bathrooms.There is a kids playroom in the pub which is also amazing! The staff were all really friendly and welcoming!

    8MelaniePosted on: 12-6-2025

    Beautiful location, nearby walks. Very comfortable rooms, staff always friendly and helpful. Excellent bar and restaurant, food served there was very good.

    The room looked newly decorated/fitted out with attractive shower room, however the shower leaked at the floor from underneath and power of the water from shower heads seemed low.

    Good facilities, friendly and helpful staff. Great food.

    8DhruvPosted on: 11-26-2025

    Lovely location and great staff.

    Unfortunately my mattress wasn't very comfortable but that was a small tiny issue in comparison to the rest of my stay.

    7FionaPosted on: 11-17-2025

    Very welcoming staff. Nice situation. Cosy feel in bar. Ultra dog-friendly. Tiled chalet room with direct access outside for dogs.

    Disappointed to find no food available after 4pm on a Sunday, and bar closed at 8pm. After a long journey followed by a tiring day we had been looking forward to a nice relaxing meal and a few drinks.Also disappointed at the set price for breakfast. Whether you feasted or wanted a very small breakfast, the charge was £15.

    3CherylPosted on: 11-16-2025

    The situation was good. The breakfast was nice.

    The room we were ‘upgraded’ to had an air conditioning unit outside that kept us awake, an uncomfortable bed, no hot water for the shower and thick dust on part of the skirting board. I normally wouldn’t notice the dust but it was very obvious.

    8SimoncmPosted on: 11-15-2025

    Thr location was great next to the great ouse river and marina.

    More of a wedding venue setup and no EV charging facilties which is a must with the rise in EV car sales

    9TraceyPosted on: 11-1-2025

    Nice comfy room, big tv.

    We couldn't turn the heating off so room was for us too hot overnight, it was late when we realized so wouldn't contact reception to get it sorted

    8JasonPosted on: 10-27-2025

    Good location it was quiet and the staff were very nice

    8JennyPosted on: 10-14-2025

    evening meal delicious, veg option, and a surprise when we were brought two extra plates of sides by the charming manager and waiter (?) to make up for a delay which to be honest wasn't very long , so all very good. Breakfast less amazing but satisfactory if a little expensive for us.room perfect, just a little dust under and behind beds/radiateurs, but well provided and refreshed daily (water,tea coffee bathroom products etc), good idea to cover the cups etc in a transparent box ;)nice being directly outside onto the lawn, tables, and river +boats.. easy also for parking next to the rooms

    just one or two nights the walls proved to be thin as we could hear the neighbours easily, but luckily not too late..I understand, but from an ecological point of view I would be happy if things such as plastic bin liners weren't changed for the stay unless really necessary?

    The location was what drew us to the Pike and Eel and that hotel had separate rooms in the grounds. This suited us as we took our dog. The pub and food were excellent and our meals were very good; beautifully cooked, and tasty. The staff were very kind and helpful and went the extra mile spoiling us when they knew we had returned to the area my husband had lived in as a teenager (he now has Parkinson’s so I doubt we’ll be able to return).

    Attention to detail would be my main comment. The bedroom and bathroom were clean and comfortable- good bedding and towels, but little things needed attention: towel rail coming away from the wall, cracked bath panel, grout around the bath and the tiles used as skirting was poor, bathroom mirror and shaving point both not straight on the wall, dodgy aerial cable which meant the TV picture was temperamental. Individually, these points don’t seem much but they would only take a few hours to fix and the overall impression would be very much improved.

    Location ok

    We were Expecting a comfortable countryside picturesque room overlooking the river and ended up in a basic characterless outbuilding with no luxury whatsoever and grubby bathroom and entrance door that wouldn’t open. On arrival we were led through a scruffy back passage with rain leaking through a light fitting into a bucket. We forfeited one day of our booking as we were so dissappointed.

    8CarolPosted on: 9-24-2025

    Peaceful location.Nice staff.Good sized room, especially the bathroom and shower.Easy check-in and free upgrade.Undergoing renovations in the main building.

    Had trouble with hot water, which we reported at checkout the next day (owners were not aware of the issue until we reported it and promised to investigate).

    9HelenPosted on: 9-7-2025

    Very comfortable clean accommodation in quiet pretty setting .Quick check in .Staff member friendly

    The door to the en suite was very difficult to shut and had to bang it to get it to close

    6JenPosted on: 9-7-2025

    Breakfast lovely and hot, location looking over the river was fab.We had a lovely evening meal and staff were mostly pleasant

    Bed in chalet 11 was awful and appeared broken, as it clunked every time you moved,needs checking out and fixing
