"My husband and I stayed overnight at Judges on Wednesday 15th September. Our room No 8 was very comfortable with a nice bathroom and a view of the gardens from the window. We had a slight problem with the tv which the management did their best to rectify, probably needs a new one. We were told that the tv in this room did tend to have these isssues. The meal in the evening was delicious and fully deserves it accolades. Breakfast similarly was very good and so nice to have everything served to your table and with a smile. We would definitely stay again. Gemma in particular was very helpful."

"We have been avoiding going out but we decided to celebrate our 43rd anniversary of our first date and went out for lunch to one of our favourite places on a Saturday at 12:30. The Hotel is very covid conscious and has a NHS bar code to login to the app for track and trace. We sat in the conservatory with fantastic views of the gardens, really relaxing. We had a mixture of meals form the Bar and standard lunch menu. All served well, delicious and arrived promptly but we were never rushed. A Quality dining experience making our anniversary even more special. The Head waiter is outstanding, and we will return. Many thanks."
