Half Moon Hotel in East Lindsey

I wish I could give it 10 stars. While the place looks a bit dated, once you are here you simply will not care about how the hotel and it's decor looks because the owners have the most important thing done right - making you feel welcome. I have genuinely not met a nicer family nevermind just comparing hoteliers. As soon as you check in, they make the time to speak with you and are genuinely interested. Clearly something extremely important to the owners because all the staff are the same and the non customer facing staff have the same lovely, guests-first attitude even when outside the hotel (I was terrible at my parking so was in the way of the kitchen staff and the bins). The food in the restaurant is absolutely fantastic and great value for money. I will not be staying anywhere else when I come to this area.

A large bar with various different areas to sit and a large outside space at the back perfect for warmer days and evenings. The staff are what make an establishment. The Half Moon could train others. All excellent. Bar food and following day breakfast were very good. Bedrooms on first impression are a little dated but are clean and comfortable. A well stocked tea tray, selection of TV options, a trouser press and lots of storage space if required. My single room also had plenty of electric sockets around for phone etc. Very good value indeed.

above outstanding impeccably brilliant.Staff, service, food all to a very high standard nothing is too much trouble.treat you like royalty while giving you a warm family welcome.you are crazy if you pass on this place.I booked my next visit from the car parking leaving the place.I will keep returning as often as ableThe Best

Very friendly and professional and when they say 'dog friendly' this place means it rather than tolerated. Our dog enjoyed the stay as much as us. Lovely well kept garden and great breakfast where he could join us. Definitely stay again if in area.

I dined in the restaurant last night for the first time. I am a local. The food and service was excellent, beautifully cooked and presented, nothing was too much trouble.Themenu was unpretentious and tasty, good gluten-free options. The desserts are first class.The wine was also good. I could not fault it.I will be back. At last, somewhere to relax and eat good food in Alford just a short stroll from home. Dog friendly too.

We booked the function room at the hotel for a small private family event. Helen and her staff were great, very welcoming and considerate, and flexible to meet our needs. Good buffet food (especially the rolls, meats and salads and sparkly cakes) and there was a lovely garden space to access as well

This was my first time dining at Half Moon restaurant and everything was first class from the service to the food. Such lovely bubbly, friendly staff who really made me and my friend feel at home. Fabulous atmosphere with beautiful gardens outside. This would defiantly be a must visit for anyone who wishes to visit Alford! Honestly you are all doing such an amazing job running such a high standard establishment :)

Just returned from a lovely lunch, we arrived at very short notice and not long before lunch finished. Everyone was Incredibly attentive. Nothing was too much trouble. We both had the belly pork roast, a must!!!! slow cooked with a lovely crunchy crackling topping with a great selection of vegetables and mashed potatoes. Then the carrot cake WOW the lightest and tastiest we have ever had, simply beautiful, we had this as a takeaway as we were suitably stuffed after lunch. All round an absolute pleasure. A wonderful family run business that must be supported to ensure it continues that way. We look forward to returning soon xx

The friendliest place ever. Owners and staff are so nice you feel like being with family. Great touch for special occasion much appreciated. Lovely quiet place, nice gardens. Bonus as its pets friendly and our was spoiled.

We were passing and dropped in for a meal. We were treated like very valued customers. The food was delicious, the service was fantastic. The staff were brilliant with my two sons, 3 & 5, treating them as if they were happy to have them there and taking their orders. Brilliant, we're not that near but we'll return.
