Sedgebrook Hall sits in 13 acres of landscaped gardens, 15 minutes' drive from Northampton town centre.
It is a particularly good base for history buffs and walkers, as it's within 20 minutes' drive of a number of stately homes and country parks. The Althorp Estate -- the Spencer family's home and Princess Diana's final resting place -- former monastery Delapré Abbey and 18th-century Palladian-style country house Kelmarsh Hall and Gardens are all close by. Brixworth Country Park, Pitsford Reservoir, Abington Park and Sywell Country Park are also on the hotel's doorstep.
The hotel is in Chapel Brampton, a village known for its distinctive sandstone cottages -- the hotel is also made out of this local stone and dates back to 1861.
There's an on-site restaurant and the "chef recommends" list usually includes a daily fish special, a seasonal classic dish and a vegetarian option. The hotel also has an indoor pool, a sauna, a gym, a tennis court and a par-3 pitch-and-putt course. Wi-Fi is free throughout.

All in all a lovely break, however We did find the cost of a single glass of wine rather costly at £11.50!

The layout of the hotel meant that you had to take luggage up and down lots of steps from the car park to the reception area and then even further from reception to our room. The accommodation is along long corridors connected to the main old part of the hotel which houses the restaurant, bar etc.

PH hotels have invariably been disappointing due to lack of imaginatioin with their menus. Too much is offered, too much is uninspiring.. I'd rather see a smaller menu with more care taken to produce quality food. We will avoid this chain in future.

The breakfasts, plenty of choice. The refurbished room on the ground floor was Ok. The room we were given originally had no hot water, a wonky TV, hadn't been properly cleaned. The poor TV reception is apparently an issue on the top (1st) floor along with the hot water supply. Only the ground floor rooms are really suitable.

It appeared to be aimed at businesses and definitely seemed to be more of a corporate hotel. Saying that it was a very pleasant place to stay in a lovely location. The only thing that let it down was the bathroom. Our room had obviously been modernised but the bathroom was pretty dire with black mould around the sink and bath - shame.

Problems with the television, picture rolling on first night and wavy lines the second night, thought this wasn't acceptable Also on the Friday night, 2 of the wedding guests, knocked on our door, then they set the fire alarm off, this was at 4.30 a.m. then at 5.30 just having got back to sleep the fire alarm went off again, a few of us went downstairs,. we didn't feel that confident that the staff were sure what to do when the firm alarm went off!!!!!

Think the hotel was having a minor crisis heard there were hot water issues so guests all moved to one end of the hotel. Staff seemed stressed and no one seemed to really know what was happening, it actually seemed like the staff were quite new. Room quality didn't reflect those in the pictures and the grounds are quite small.

There were corporate parties in so there was a lot of business talk, a plethora of lap tops, tablets and I phones so it felt like we were in an office! There was a snooker and pool table in the only lounge so the play did not allow you a relaxing drink or read.

Our main criticism is that it is noticeable that guests in wedding parties come first (most evident at breakfast). This leads us to assume they are focusing on a position as a wedding venue.
The price of indian massages and pedicures etc are reasonable but we would advise pre-booking for these as we couldn't get an appointment during our stay.

Initial impression was good; pleasant reception and room was clean, bright and with the expected facilities. Bed very comfortable.
However, the shower (room 218) only produced a tiny trickle of water so we were forced to take baths and wash hair in the basin.
Our evening meal was disappointing and the service pitifully slow - it took over 2 hours to reach our dessert course although the restaurant was not particularly busy. Breakfast was busy and chaotic but the food was actually quite good. The waiting staff were doing their best but it was clear that there was no one in charge. The restaurant needs a Maitre d'.

On booking, the deal seemed almost too good to be true, but it was everything it purported to be! When you took account of the food and its cost, we had effectively stayed in the room for nothing! The evening meal was very good with some unusual items on the menu and the buffet breakfast good. The staff were friendly and efficient. No grumbles at all and would have no hesitation in recommending this deal.

The hotel seemed a bit out of the way but was a convenient meeting point for us and our friends from both north and south. Althorp hall was very close and was worth a drive around the perimeter even if you didn't want to pay the entrance fee!

The bed... We were booked for two nights. On the first night, we found that the bed dipped in the middle, plus it was so springy when either of us moved the other was bounced about. We brought this to the attention of the hotel the following morning, and they said it would be looked into. The next night was just as bad.
The state of the bed was really unacceptable.

Unfortunately the pool which we didn.t expect was out of action for our day but were permitted to use it the after checkout if we wished.
The service for diner was very poor because of staff problems we waited 50 minutes before getting any food and the bottle of wine which was part of the deal. The food though was very good.

The House was very busy with customers, and the evening meal was subject to some problems in the kitchen that created quite a delay. Unfortunately the leisure facilities were not functioning, which was a great shame.
