deborah from rugby, GB (Mature couple) 28 May 2008

The staff were most helpful, courteous and friendly. It was raining on the morning of our departure and with the rooms in a separate building across a courtyard we gor rather wet going for breakfast. Breakfast is extra and whilst our full english breakfast was ok, I think, if we stay there again, we will skip breakfast and make do with the coffee and biscuits provided in the bedroom. The breakfast room had the TV on all the time, with singers who are obviously in love with themselves performing indifferent pop songs as we ate. (I like to choose what I watch and hear on telly, and when!) The breakfast times, for Sunday morning, were 8-10. I'd have liked more flexibility. We had to decide which sort of breakfast, if any, we wanted the evening before and book it. We therefore ordered breakfast before we had our evening meal. When it came to eating it, we hadn't very good appetites and had no time to do it justice. (97486719)

positive comments Independent entrance to appartment. Privacy. Spacious. Clean. Comfortable.
negative comments You could see daylight through the entrance door.

The manager was extremeley helpful. Nothing was too much trouble for him. I had a late check in and was delayed even further because of an accident on M5. Even at midnight for a check in the manager couldn't do enough for me. Excellent service. (97096071)

positive comments The room was spacious and clean in a lovely setting.

Gale from Marietta, US (Mature couple) 17 April 2008

Our stay at the Dark Barn Lodge was wonderful. I cannot praise the owners, Julian and Linda, and their great staff including Claudio, Christina, and Sarah, highly enough. They were attentive to all of our needs and helpful in every respect. Gale and Steve (97227952)

Richard from Limerick, IE (Group of adult friends) 09 April 2008

The location is a few miles outside of Gloucester, but the flexibility of the staff operated taxi service made this a non issue. There is a fitness hall which is very well equipped for a relatively small hotel and in addition an indoor swimming pool and jacuzzi all of which add to make this a very attractive option for a quiet retreat.

positive comments Excellent staff who were very accommodating, flexible and of course friendly. Nothing was a problem.
negative comments Rooms were very small and no one came in to clean\tidy the room in between the two nights of our stay.

Tony from Felmersham, United Kingdom;GB (Solo leisure traveller) 19 March 2007

This hotel has rooms of an excellent standard. The staff could not have been more friendly or helpful. It is in an excellent location for Gloucester, Cheltenham, Chepstow and the Forest of Dean. The only draw back was the need to travel a short distance to eat at a choice of local pubs or resteraunts. Even then the owner insisted that he take me and pick me up rather than get a cab. The attitude to and delivery of customer service could not be faulted. (99102404)
