Hotel reviews
April 2011 : We have just returned from a 3-day short break and the Knoll House Hotel is truely excellent. This is really a great hotel to relax, it feels like home from home. The rooms and bathrooms have just been refurbished to a very high standard (contrary to previous reviews, shampoo etc. is provided), and the food has been excellent throughout.
March 2011 : We have been coming here almost every year for the past decade, and shall keep coming back for years to come! A fantastic hotel, feels like home from home.. Highly HIGHLY recommended.
October 2010 : Our family have visited Knoll House Hotel over the last 70 years and we just love it.
This is a hotel you either "get" or you don't.. It's definintely quirky. Our children, who are now 21 and 23 have been coming here since they were babies and are always enthusiastic to visit when the offer is made.
