Great Value - Fantastic clean, spacious and comfortable accommodation
Simple, easy access/check-in with off-street parking on the premises. Accommodation was modern, neat, clean, spacious and comfortable with good facilities (Kettle,microwave, toaster, TV in lounge and bedroom, great hot shower). Lovely heated rooms were nice and cosy. Would definitely stay here again. Thank you, we really enjoyed our stay here.

Fair
Size of room was very good.
New bedding and towels needed.
Cleaner could do with being more thorough:floor not very clean(not sure if been mopped), dust and spiders.

very satisfied
Nice location, lots of parking, easy access and a very helpful contact (Daniel)
The self-contained flat was clean and had everything that we required
The only negative was the couch, which could do with some new seat cushions
The pub next door was popular, friendly and offered a nice pint as well as lovely food
On this occasion we were visiting family, and we will be returning to The Plough Retreat

It was fine. Just stayed on my own for 2 nights. went to my daughters nearby for mealss
Located near to my daughters in Carlton le Moorland. Just handy to visit her. The grouting in the shower needs attention and it would be useful to have a tray to put soap etc in. The inside rim of the toilet bowl needs cleaning. I was cold in the night really needed a thicker duvet

Disappointed, due to turning up at 9.30/10pm to find the apartment had not been cleaned or hot water
Close and convenient to Newark truck fest. The woman who came to give us clean bedding and towels at 10.30pm after contacting to say it had not been cleaned since previous guests.

Big lounge and bedroom but very basic, owner needs to spend 2 days there to improve poor aspects.
Big rooms but poorly fitted out. This could be great with a little attention to detail. Biggest down side - internal toilet has PIR light sensor set to about 5 seconds so take a torch with you.
