Last Minute Accommodation in Bracknell


It is a rare occasion that my husband and I get to spend some time alone just the two of us, and so to my great pleasure a few weeks ago my parents came to visit and offered to look after the children for a night! Brilliant! My husband and I got thinking of what we could spend the day and night doing as we thought we should make the most of it! We knew we wanted to get away for the night, however we were not too keen on going far either, the other issue we faced was we had two days to organise it, so it was a very last minute arrangement. 

We looked at a lot of the hotels in Bracknell our hometown, but they all seemed to be very business like and not really what we had in mind. So we widened our search slightly too possible places just outside of Bracknell, and that is when we came across the Country House Hotel. From looking at their website it looked to be a very cosy looking place and at such a reasonable price! So I immediately called them up to check if they had availability and they did, we were thrilled. I spoke to a very helpful Receptionist who explained for us it might be better if we were to book a Dinner, Bed and Breakfast rate. On arrival to the Stirrups Country House Hotel we were met by a wave of friendliness, check in was very quick and the room we had been given had a beautiful view across the gardens. I was very quick to jump into the bath and began to unwind. It was heaven! We had booked a table in the restaurant on arrival but got down slightly early and had a drink at the bar. 

The staffs were all so friendly and we were sat at a lovely table next to the fire, however I was certainly not expecting the food to be as tasty as it was! It was the perfect night away, right on the doorstep of Bracknell - who knew! It exceeded our expectations for such a lastminute accommodation in Bracknell get away! One thing I found great about the Stirrups Hotel was the small size of it meant that the experience was that bit more personal and although we were only there for the night the staff very friendly and it is always nice to see the same faces. My husband and I would most certainly come back, maybe next time it wouldn't have to be such a last minute rush! I would recommend the Stirrups Country House Hotel to anyone who is looking for somewhere close to Bracknell, but with all the beauty that comes from being in the countryside!
