Clean,comfortable lovely setting. Management and staff extremely accommodating. Polite and interested in your stay. Breakfast was excellent with plenty of options. Really can’t complement the team enough.
Absolutely nothing
De ruime kamer en de zeer vriendelijke eigenaren, zij waren zeer attent! Ze hebben ons zelfs gebeld over de weg naar het huis nadat zij wisten dat er een ongeluk was gebeurd. Ze wilden ons ophalen. Zo ontzettend betrokken en aardig! Het ontbijt was volledig persoonlijk op wens afgestemd! Fijne ruime parkeergelegenheid!
Het geluid van de ventilator in de badkamer, die veel geluid maakt en alleen stopte als je m uit zette.

A gem of a place and excellent value. Quiet, very comfortable, good road connections to the places I needed to go to.
Comfortable, quiet, great hosts, good value
Lovely property in a very quiet location, but close to local villages. Plenty of parking, the rooms are comfortable and very well equipped, and the owners couldn’t be any nicer or more helpful.
Nothing to say
The location was great. Lovely walks nearby with beautiful scenery.
Fantastic location. Lovely gardens. Very clean rooms.

Emyr and Tracy made us feel welcome the second we got there even though I messed up when booking and woke them up at 11pm the night before to check what I’d done wrong. The room was lovely, big and decorated to a high standard with everything you could possibly think of there at your fingertips. I always take my coffee mug with me wherever we go because hotels only give a small cup. No need …. Large bone china mugs provided!! Great breakfast, beautiful garden and ideal location for so many things to see and do. I could go on and on about how they have thought of everything but I would be here forever. If you’re going to events in this area I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this guest house.

From the minute my booking was confirmed, the communication was fantastic. Check in was easy, Tracey was incredibly helpful with local information that I needed for my short stay. Emyr and Tracey are the absolute perfect hosts and nothing is too much trouble. Do not hesitate to book here if it ticks your travel requirements, you won't be disappointed.
Excellent communication with hosts who were great. Very friendly and helpful. Lovely static caravan in beautiful surroundings. Fabulous breakfast.
Nothing to dislike.
Always perfect !
The room had everything to help make your stay comfortable just everything had been thought about.
Nothing
The owners & staff. Always welcoming, thoughtful and engaging. They sure have a better memory than I do in remembering names and details about their guests; not many places know or take into account what you've had for breakfast during your first visit 2+ years ago.
don't really have anything to complain about hence I won't just for the sake of complaining
Amazing hosts, really friendly and welcoming. Perfect full English breakfast to start the day. Room was amazing, spacious and sparkling clean throughout.
Beautiful spot in the countryside, very much enjoyed a morning walk along the bridleway next to the property. The hosts were great, and the room was lovely.
Everything was excellent. Lovely room and wonderful service by extremely nice staff. Thank you very much
Exceptional clean and fantastic service
There is absolutely nothing to dislike about this property
Lovely peaceful rural location. The room was very modern and well equipped. Great value for the money. The owner was a very nice man
Radiator in the room didn't come on at night and only came on in the morning. There was no way to switch it on and it was a very cold night. The bed was a bit hard for my liking but that's a personal preference and not a criticism.
Die Lage, die Ruhe, die Zimmerausstattung. Alles liebevoll gestaltet
Die Lage evtl, aber wenn man mit dem Auto unterwegs ist, kein Problem
Breakfast out of this world all staff fantastic so welcoming and helpful easily the best guest house I have stayed in and I travel throughout UK
Nothing really setting is lovely rooms serviced daily Emyr/Tracey they go above and beyond to look after you genuine people .
Lovely welcome, friendly and the hotel was spotless. Great room and shower was amazing

A warn welcome from host, cosy room, spotlessly clean, attention to detail.
Very clean and tidy. Lovely location, close to town. Friendly host, very professional. Excellent breakfast, with a great choice.
Nothing.
The welcoming feel of both the people and the place. Nothing was too much trouble from providing menus for take away to getting a birthday card and cake for my husband when they noticed the cards in our room. The room facilities, including a fridge and daily bottles of water, extra pillows should you need them.
There was nothing we did not like, it was a little more isolated than we had realised, but only minutes to any shops and many outdoor experiences. So as far as we were concerned it's a wonderful relaxing place to visit for a few days or longer.
Was perfect, quiet, spotless, amazing rooms, spacious. Staff were incredible and accommodating in every way. A little gem of a place, no complaints atall.
Quiet location away from any noise. Staff were very friendly and helpful throughout my short stay. Breakfast was cooked fresh and delicious. Just wish I could have stayed for longer, but will definitely be returning.
Great stay, lovely breakfast, large room which was warm and comfortable.
Breakfast was lovely, staff/owners were very kind and helpful.
Breakfast was exceptional, served quickly with a smile. The room was very comfortable with a very warm welcome when we arrived.

The quiet relaxed location which was most convenient for us to visit family
Can’t think of anything. Bridleways must be one of the nicest places that we have stayed
One of the owners greeted me, and we had a pleasant conversation about the house and the area. He gave me directions to the place I was going to the next day, which were very helpful and accurate. He told me a little history about the house, and was very welcoming and accommodating.
I found the bed to be a bit hard, and the pillows too big. I don’t know if there was the options to swap out the pillows for different thicknesses.
Beautiful decor, and very comfortable
Nothing
A very warm welcome is always much appreciated and that’s just what I received. The room was very comfortable and above all spotless! The owners were extremely kind and pleasant. They provided a superb breakfast. Thank you for a most enjoyable stay!
There was nothing to not like!
Welcoming, great space
The hotel host was very nice. Everything went quickly and smoothly. The bed was very comfortable and very cozy. I recommend it wholeheartedly.
It’s our second visit to Bridleways only this time we stayed in the amazing cottage which was an absolute dream. The cottage was as expected scrupulously clean, well equipped and beautifully decorated throughout. The breakfast is always cooked to order using fresh produce and served by friendly Staff. Fully recommended and we will be returning next year.
Friendly staff. Quiet area. Excellent facilities. Would stay again.
Great location. Superb hosts. Possibly the nicest place I’ve stayed in the area. I will be returning!!

Great place, spotless, amazingly polite host!
The choice of breakfast options was surprisingly extensive - on a par to a good hotel, and the quality of the food and its presentation were excellent.
Quite simply, Bridleways is hard to fault.
Great family run guest house - close to the great outdoors and all of Nottinghamshires hidden gems. The cooked breakfast is a real treat
Great location.
A bit dark driving back to hotel.
Friendly staff with very clean room. The breakfast was lovely, would return here.
Nothing
The Bridleways is in a lovely quiet location with very good facilities and excellent hosts. The breakfast was superb, a piping hot full English with good quality ingredients. A very comfortable stay.
Amazing stay again! The room was amazing, spacious, clean with all the little touches that make it home from home. Staff were friendly and couldn't do enough to make me comfortable during my stay. Breakfast was perfect, excellent produce and served quickly. Tracy was attentive but not hovering which was great. Fabulous location but close enough to town and things to do. Can't wait til next time
Cannot be improved!
Attentive owner. Property is on tip top condition. Great nearby circular walks. Comfortable bed, definitely the best I’ve stayed in this year.
Faultless, this guest house is definitely value for money, very spacious rooms, and exceptionally clean
No complaints
Marvellous stay at Bridleways
Fantastic attention to detail. Lovely breakfast. Always welcoming.
The main reason for why I loved this property so much was the staff. Very friendly, attentive and caring, I couldn’t have asked for better service
Shower was a little small and the water pressure wasn’t great, but that’s all
The people are so friendly, and will do everything to make your stay comfortable.
Location is fantastic for access to Sherwood Pines, particularly by bicycle. The hosts were both lovely. Room very comfortable. Nice and quiet. Breakfast was very good.
Literally the only thing I can think of is the shower pressure was very lacklustre.
Lovely accommodation, clean, quiet, everything I needed for my stay. Breakfast was amazing and cooked to order, there was parking on site, the en-suite was clean with plenty of toiletries provided. Emyr was really great at answering my questions in advance, giving local advice and remembering all the guest names which was a nice touch. Would definitely recommend!
