We attended a funeral for a very special lady and the wake was at the vines, I have never been here before and never will again. The food was lovely but wasn't enough for everyone to have a sandwich or a piece of cake and I felt so bad for the lovely family who had lost there mother. They ran out of tea and coffee and had to wait ages for them to fill up. Some of the staff were rude and unhelpful. As this was the first time it certainly was nit a good impression given the circumstances.

Have eaten here a few times over the years, always a good experience. Staff are attentive, and the food very nice. Recommend the steak and ale pudding - puff pastry crust was perfect.

We booked for a group of 5 at lunchtime on a Saturday. On arrival we had to find our way through a group of wedding guests who filled the bar area, so we had to go directly to our table rather than have a drink in the bar. Service was fine with lovely staff and the food was very good, but rather expensive - I had the braised beef with mash which I would recommend. We all had different dishes and agreed they were all good, especially the chips that came with the burger! Personally I felt that the afters were overpriced for what they were.

Food really nice. But can't believe £7.20 for orange juice and lemonade. Charged for pint of lemonade (which obviously is not a full pint as they have to add orange juice which we were charged £2.65 And I was charged £2.90 for a dash of soda water. I will be contacting trading standards as not getting a full measure of a pint of lemonade. ??. I didn't say anything at the time as we were celebrating a birthday and I didn't see the bill till I got home. Will not be returning and will advise people to throughly check bills. Rip off prices.?

Beautiful old manor type property, very well maintained and catering regularly for Weddings. Beautiful and extensive grounds. One of our close friend's niece, who had meticulously planned her wedding over a year ago at this venue. They have built in the extensive grounds, a 'sympathetic' styled Orangery, a short walk away from the main house, with a path leading to the reception hall after the ceremony, which is also matching the style of the main hotel. The service was held in the Orangery, with us all blessed with beautiful weather to have a few canapes and drinks before the reception. The hotel's commitment to detail, was excellent, although I know the bride, with her extensive planning for around 200 guests, had made a good number of the arrangements, but management and staff followed these in a meticulous way: Staff excellent here and very well trained. They have in this hotel around 28 rooms I believe, all well appointed and to a very good standard, rooms I saw. If the number of guests exceed their capacity, they have arrangements with nearby hotels, as they did for some of the bride's guests. On site there is a gym and a very large outside heated plunge pool. The only wedding I've ever attended where there was a choice of menu..all perfectly served..food absolutely excellent: At a large venue like this, if you receive a meal which was of a good standard in line with a decent restaurant for a table of say 4, this was very acceptable. There was a relatively new functions manager here, who certainly is a 'find'.. very personable, easy on the eye (Woops..too woke) and a staff, either inherited or trained to an excellent standard. Faultless place for a stay, or a wedding venue: Well done!

We got married at Barton Hall in August and the day was perfect! It is a truly beautiful and unique venue and our guests could not speak more fondly of Barton Hall! Majority of guests said it was the BEST food they had ever had! The staff were extremely helpful from our first viewing and went above and beyond to make our day special! We are so grateful for the memories at Barton Hall and we will certainly be back for our wedding anniversary for a trip to the spa!

Barton Hall - what can I say, you gave us the best day of our Lives, one we will treasure forever. Thank you for hosting our wedding at the gorgeous Barton Hall, so glad we had the exclusive package - truly felt so magical. All staff were amazing, food was delicious, rooms were perfect, Orangery was dreamy, and you even gave us the weather. Friends and Family were overwhelmed by it all as were we, thank you from the bottom of our hearts, just wish we could do it all again. Anyone considering having their wedding here, do not doubt it for a second - they made our dreams come true. Thank you. Mr and Mrs Shipley.

Great place to stay, the meal in the restaurant was excellent, also a nice spot to sit outdoors in the garden, also very handy if you want to visit Wicksteed Park! Adults have use of the spa facilities if required.

Food was good. But to be charged for a pint orange juice and lemonade over £7 because they charged for a pint of lemonade (when obviously you don't get a pint because they have to add orange juice of which we were charged £2.60.) Also charged £2.60 for a dash of soda water. Which they put through as half lemonade. Didn't see the bill at the time as we were celebrating a birthday. Very disappointed will not be returning and will be warning friends of rip off drink prices ?

We had our wedding here last Saturday! It was the most amazing weekend from the Friday - Sunday! Our day was absolutely perfect and this was a credit to all the staff from front of house to the chefs/housekeeping. All of our family had the most amazing time and commented how amazing the venue/rooms were! Food was incredible on the Friday night as well as the wedding breakfast so please ignore any of the negative comments. Thank you Barton Hall for making our wedding weekend perfect x
