Customer feedback
We guarantee that all our feedback is genuine and can only be submitted by people who have booked through our websites.
Ms Mary Elisabeth Arnold, September 2011: I was doubtful of booking at Claude Gibbe Hall because of the nearness to a major road. But the sound insulation must've been very good because I had a very very peaceful stay. Fantastic! Perhaps something about this could be incorporated on the website to stop others being put off by similar worries. I would recommend this accommodation to anyone.
Mrs Jillian Bellamy, August 2011: We had a very pleasant stay and a lovely surprise with the pack of toiletries and sachets of hot chocolate provided. The reception staff were pleasant and helpful, as were the kitchen staff. I would not hesitate to recommend Claude Gibb Hall to others.
