The Fountain Hotel

Think the staff were a bit amused by us wanting dinner at 12, but really enjoyed it. When it first arrived (roast dinners) there were mumbles from one of the table that it didn't look much and there was no veg, The veg was hidden under the meat and it's pot luck what you get as its mixed, my Mother in Law didn't get any carrots but I did and it was all delicious (one slice of beef was chewy, but I put that down to the meat, not the way it was cooked) and more than enough for me. The two roasties tasted more like mini jacket potatoes, they might be as they have the skin on, and the mash tastes like jacket potato mash, which I like. Teenagers had pizza and chicken burger, I've been told the chips were really nice, and the pizza eater wanted to go back the next day. The chicken dinner was a cajun? chicken breast, but again was told it was really nice. Will definitely go back at some point.

We was in Tuxford for the weekend at the local caravan park and popped into the Fountain for a drink after a walk, it was a lovely atmosphere with family's and couples, it has a good selection of drinks, my wife had a cider but didn't like it so I went to the bar to buy a different drink the landlady exchanged it without payment which was very nice of her, we will certainly pop in again when we are over that way. 😀

Brilliant place amazingly accomodating staff that are more than happy to help with anything, the rooms are top notch we have stayed in Hilton hotels and we would prefer the rooms here anyday. A full size bath in the bathroom is great, and then there's the food which truly is to die for, I recommend the homemade stonebaked pizzas to anybody. Our second stay now and looking forward to many more Even let me keep 2 mountain bikes in the room during our stay 🙏

When we booked this place last minute on a Friday night we expected a very basic room because of the price. And goodness were we wrong! Hotel is lovely and clean, rooms are large with everything you'll need for your stay and more, we even had a bath, which we miss out on at home! Lovely little touches like biscuits and shower gel etc left for us. We arrived late and the owners made every accommodation for us,including calling us to inform us of the process to get in the building. The restaurant downstairs is a must, the pizzas are to die for and the prices are great too! We've well and truly found a gem here and we will be back!

The bar staff are wonderful and friendly. Always there ready to serve. At this time of year the open fire is very welcoming. The food is reasonably priced and very tasty. If in Tuxford stop by and have a drink and some lunch. The room we stayed in is very clean and very comfortable beds. Just one minor downer. The room was freezing all the time.
