We spent our wedding night here 37 years ago so it seemed fitting to return today on my wife's birthday albeit just for morning coffee. On arrival at 10.30am we opened the entrance door and we were confronted by a pair of unatended steps, no lights on and no one to be seen. We likened it to The Marie Celeste. As we rounded the corner there was a man sitting in his pyjamas in reception drinking a coffee and sounded full of cold on his phone of course!!. I asked if there was anyone around to help us. He said that he would take a look so he obviously work there. After a five minute wait and nobody

We visited 'Christmas on the Hill' at Seckford Hall this year. Absolutely shocking and total false advertising. We wasted 50 on that experience. Sounded amazing on paper, film production company setting up an immersive experience, shocking! Was basically a couple of points of interaction, the Grinch was possibly the only fun part. A few naff lights leading the way basically leading you down to Santa's grotto. No elf work shop, total false advertising. When we reached Santa's grotto, there was a couple of young girls playing grunge gangsta style music, which we were so annoyed by told them it

Christmas party for work. Seated in a cold marquee crammed with tables. Very noisy. Disappointed that was no soft drink on arrival, everyone was offer a martini (which everyone said was disgusting) the alternative being water on the table or buy your own soft drink. Not worth 55 if you're not going to dance but wish to socialise.

My wife and I have previously stayed at Seckford Hall, enjoying a really nice stay, so when the offer of a promotional voucher became available we gladly took it, I really wish we hadn't. We had a really nice room, unfortunately the balcony had obviously not been cleaned in some time, with numerous cigarette ends littering it, in various states of decay. The room was generally quite clean, but attention to detail was poor, with pockets of dust and dirt in various places, including a hair grip left in plain sight on the bathroom floor. However, our main issue was the heating, or more to the point
