We stayed for 3 nights with 2 days of guided walking on our second visit. All the common areas of the hotel have now been refurbished to a high standard. Our room was one that has not yet been refurbished but was clean and contained everything that we needed. The staff and walks leaders were very friendly and helpful. There was a good choice of freshly prepared food that was better than many restaurants we have been to. The dining room has a fabulous view over the surrounding hills and countryside but it was quite noisy with all the conversation going on!

Guided walking long weekend break

this house has just finished a major renvation. It no longer has a pool unfortunately.
Had a nice room with a nice spacious ensuite. Meals were very good. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Lovely views over the gardens and countryside. well worth a visit

Staying at Longmynd House

Long Mynd House has almost completed it's renovation. The House is looking wonderful and all facilities were excellent. My room on the 3rd floor was perfectly equipped for a break with plenty of wardrobe and drawer space. The bed was very comfortable and the en-suite bathroom has a good strong shower and plenty of towels. 
Breakfast has plentiful and tasty with an excellent choice of hot and cold options. The packed lunches were very good with freshly prepared sandwiches and a great choice of various fruits, savouries and sweet items. 
Dinner choices were also very good with a well cooked 3 course meal prepared nightly.
The Long Mynd staff were, without exception, all excellent. They were friendly, helpful and very professional.  Service at table was prompt and efficient, food was always hot and beautifully served.
The Discovery Room had a great selection of walking trails which, as an unguided customer, I made use of every day.
Whilst I didn't have any guided walks, I did meet with and enjoy the company and conversations of the volunteer guides who were all great company.
This is my 1st HF break and as a solo traveller, I will definitely return. The experience was sociable and friendly and it was lovely to have company at mealtimes and share conversations with so many lovely fellow travellers.

Fabulous walking holiday at Long Mynde

Although I have been to quite a lot of HF's hotels this one needs more work completing. Already done work on the windows & restaurant area. 
The issue was with the classic bedrooms. some date from the 1960/70's & it is a lottery whether you get a room which has been updated or not. 
If you pay a supplement for a premium room  that is fine. The next work scheduled is to replace the swimming pool & put a new patio down. 
I feel as a guest, the rooms should be upgraded first. You can't alter the small bedrooms/bathrooms , but basically white walls with no pictures ,cushions ,bed throws etc & dated furniture ,very small TV 13inches ?. Very few plug sockets.
Carpets need replacing throughout. 
The staff are their greatest asset always willing to listen & help. 
Until the improvements are made, I will be visiting other HF houses as you pay the same for breaks.  

could be better

The hotel was being renovated when we stayed, so there was a certain amount of disruption, but we were out walking during the day, so it wasn't a problem.
The staff were really friendly: Tiff, the  manager, Gabor, the barman, and Richard, who arranged for our group to sit together for meals, We were a self guided group, and there was a huge choice of walks, plus advice from the guides who were very happy to advise us of the most suitable routes. The food was good and varied, and there was plenty of it, particularly the packed lunches. I would definitely stay there again.

Lovely staff, great food

Entire hotel covered in scaffolding and thick opaque plastic screening so no views out of the windows. Living in a plastic bag for a week made rooms airless and hot but couldn't open windows as workmen were immediately outside, with associated building noise. HF warned us a few days beforehand but no option given to cancel. Given a free drinks voucher worth £5 per evening but only handed six, we were there for 7 nights.  Same holiday is now on offer at 50% off. HF have truly let themselves down with this appalling accommodation. DON'T BOOK IT!!

Dreadful hotel

The repairs have been put back every year for the last five years.  Signs of water ingress in the small dining room.  According to the planning application work will include destroying the pool and replacing it with a terrace and complete replacement of that face of the building.


In urgent need of repair and refurbishment

Thought front door was backdoor. Inside old carpets. Shabby all round. Room had large extraction tube outside sitting on scaffolding. Made huge racket everytime meals were prepared. Window in room neither outside or inner would close, a constant draft. Toilet seat fell off. I repaired it. Mealsin evening worse than school dinners. Cold cod which I could not eat. Went to local restaurant on third night couldn't face a nother offering of that disgusting food. Packed lunches 3 out of 10. Breakfast was the best meal. Didn't like managers joke a out hitting the barman.
Was so glad to be out of there.

Walking holiday

Lovely warm welcome from the Manager - Tiff - who ran the house like clockwork.  another shout out to the Bar Manager - Gabor - friendly and funny.  The Chef served up the best roast beef Sunday dinner I have ever eaten !  In fact all the meals were plentiful and of great quality.
We stayed in the Magpie room which was very comfortable and clean.
The walk leaders/assessors and trainee leaders were so friendly and engaging.
We went self guided and the routes provided were ideal and comprehensive.  On the communal tables, we found from the guided walkers, they were just as happy.
Couldn't fault it there - it was my first walking holiday and hope to have many more.

Very happy indeed

A large and somewhat tiara hotel taken over by HF. It was bought in a dry run down state and still needs a lot more refurbishment. It should be remembered that  this is for people booking HF walking holidays. If not walking with them may not be suitable for you. Excellent if staying on your own by the communal tables and evening activities. Excellent hard working staff. Real Ale is Ludlow Brewery.  Some self catering lodges on site away from site. No single supplement charge if you are lucky.
