I regularly work in the area and had tried unsuccessfully to book in at the Tempest before on numerous occasions. Through the week, it tends to be booked out to Rolls-Royce staff visiting the nearby plant, so I was pleasantly surprised when being told that a room was available. I had eaten there a few times in the past and... More

I am conscious that I give a lot of 5 star ratings but that is because I spend a lot of time researching places before I go. I always try to rate on value for money as well as the simple test of, 'did we have a good time?' ..... And once again, yes we did! We stayed last night... More

Stayed here for 4 nights, have to say I found everything very professional and at the same time very laid back and friendly. Checking in really efficient, room lovely thanks to the house maids, bar staff great, restaurant staff in control, even the locals / regulars made me really welcome. All staff and Management work together and it definitely has... More

We took advantage of a discounted stay any Sunday in May. We were lucky enough to be given an available suite and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The staff were very friendly and the food excellent. Will visit again soon.

We stayed in one of the executive rooms and it was fantastic. The free cake was very welcome and our dinner was also excellent. However the portions are huge so share a starter. I had lasagne which is to be recommended.

I hadn't been back to the Tempest Arms for nearly 10 years after moving out of the area. I hoped we would not be disappointed as I remembered the food was really good; we certainly were not ! Pulling in the car park we knew we were in for a bit of a wait as we struggled for a space,... More

This time we took 2 friends who had never been before and within 10 mins of being there they were already talking about a return visit! The rooms are beautiful the staff extremely friendly and very helpful and the... More

Lovely food, menu is very diverse, not sure if not too long even! Went around Easter time and had booked a table, the place was packed, and the service quite slow I found. Lovely surroundings and friendly enough staff. The toilets were a shamble, toilet paper everywhere and clearly "over-used" due to the place being packed! Hotel lobby and function... More

This pub was recommended to us. I went for lunch with my wife and it was really good. Its a big pub that serves full restaurant meals or bar meals. We had a bar meal and it was really tasty. My only warning is that you get big portions, so depending on your appetite choose carefully. The staff were great,... More
