For the preparations, my sister and I were able to decide what choices we would like on the menu and agree a set price in advance. The whole experience was excellent; the service was... More

A true gem. Nestled near the beautiful coastline near maidencombe. The care we received at the hotel was of the highest quality, the food and the room just right. The atmosphere was most notable - keep this place a secret!

We booked this hotel for our Daughters Wedding, not the cheapest but definitely rating amongst the best.

I heard no negatives from our guests whatsoever, on the contrary... More

We were a little nervous as hadn't been since it had changed hands but cant speak highly enough of food, atmosphere and service. Our friends commented it was the best cheese board they had had. We will definitely be going... More

We stayed at The Orestone on the 8th and 9th March. My husband and I stayed with three other couples and we had just the best time! Comfy bed and bedding in a lovely room, gorgeous food and great staff. The hotel provides a five star service whilst maintaining a relaxed atmosphere in which to unwind and feel at ease.
