Often people say after staying at Thornley House Hotel that it is like "one big family"
It starts with the welcome you get from the team of Caryl & James.
The purchase of Thornley House was a step of faith by both myself Caryl and my twin sister Hazel along with James the running of our hotel it is a team effort.
HAZEL and CARYL originally came from managing a local County Residential Home.
Sadly Hazel passed away in August 2019 after a serious illness but is with us always in spirit here at Thornley House. The team always laugh with fond memories and remember Hazel with love.
JAMES retired early from Shell Research with automotive and personnel training experience.
Part time staff help us to keep on top of the other jobs.
Last but certainly not least are our beloved cats. They bring us immense joy and are part of the family.
Our practice at Thornley House Hotel since opening in 1988 of mixing age groups of both the fully active and those with some disability, continues to work wonderfully well. New friends very soon become "old friends". We offer the freedom of a hotel with all the extra facilities you may need in a homely atmosphere.
Those that have stayed with us know that we do our best to keep our charges as reasonable as possible. This we do despite large increases in food, utilities and transport costs.
DO NOT be deterred from taking a vital holiday - talk to us and we will do our best to meet your requirements.
Using top quality vegetables, fish and meat (locally sourced), we provide good wholesome cooking and our experienced chefs will be happy with advance notice of special diets and allergies to accommodate your food requirements. This helps us to best cater for you.
The house, whilst retaining its Victorian charm has been completely refurbished for comfort and safety. The spacious lounges allow you to relax and enjoy the views.
Most of the bedrooms are En-Suite, all have coffee/tea making facilities and colour TV's. There is one ground floor bedroom and three of the bedrooms on the first floor are adjacent to the 4 person lift.
Having your own transport is, of course, an advantage, and there is ample parking but Thornley House Hotel does have a 14 seater minibus used for providing transport either to town or to our many beauty spots.
We wish you what we wish ourselves and that is peace of mind,good health and the sort of fellowship and fun that we see so often here at THORNLEY HOUSE HOTEL
Best Wishes from us all.
