My stay at The Buck Hotel was a delightful mix of cozy atmosphere and attentive service. I found the food to be excellent, reflecting a high standard in quality and presentation. However, I did encounter a minor issue with the tea and coffee facilities in my room. Overall, I had a wonderful experience that would bring me back for another visit.

I had a mixed experience at The Buck Hotel. The room was comfy and well-heated, but the service was hit-or-miss. While some staff members were incredibly attentive, I overheard some disruptive behaviour from the bar staff that left a bad taste. The food varied; some dishes were great while others, like the chicken bites, were disappointing. All in all, it had its moments, both good and bad.

I had a lovely experience at The Buck Hotel, with great food and a beautiful setting. However, some aspects left room for improvement, particularly the cleanliness of the garden and the language used in the bar. Overall, it was an enjoyable visit, but a bit of attention to detail could make it perfect.

The garden area provides a nice space, but it was disheartening to see a lot of dog fouling, which needs addressing for better enjoyment.
