The staff were helpful and friendly, the rooms were lovely and clean, the grounds were pleasant. Good range of options at breakfast but would have liked porridge available. Having just one coffee machine in the dining room led to long queues. Suggest staff serve coffee in pots as they do with tea.

Beautiful grounds, very impressive interior, quiet location. Reasonably priced. Decent vegetarian options. Only downside were the stairs to the room (I had asked for ground floor), although a staff member did help me carry my baggage.

Lovely looking property set in nice grounds. Rooms a decent size. Staff friendly and nice restaurant. Rooms very hot. Is the underfloor heating on in the summer? Hard to sleep. Also no lift so disabled people need to book ground floor room.

lovely welcome but the reception, building is pleasantly decorated. our room was in the top floor which involved several flights of stairs with no lift, not a problem for us but if you have limited mobility it's could be an issue. Room was clean and tidy, air conditioning would have been nice on the hottest day of the year so far but a ln electric fan was supplied which was better than nothing. we ate in the restaurant and found the food to be very good and good value. The bar and waiting staff were very good. Breakfast was also very good with a wide variety of options.

A lot of things could be improved at a small cost, I would love to spend a day with the manager to point out things that would improve the look of the hotel and the outside spaces having spent many years in the building industry helping people with their home's and properties.

Nice affordable stay
Hotel was nice, staff very friendly and good service and surprisingly more affordable than most other hotels I’ve been in lately. Bedroom was a good size but as it was in the top floor it was in the eves and had sloped ceilings everywhere Could not sit up in bed to watch tv as the sloped ceiling pushes your head forward, a bit annoying but not the end of the world. Dinner in the restaurant was nice, had seabsss which was lovely

The hotel was well located for our visit to various attractions that we knew we wanted to visit. All the staff were friendly and welcoming and despite 3 wedding taking place during the weekend whilst we were there, these didn't interfere with our stay, noise wise or people wise, so not obtrusive to non-wedding guests. Room was a good size and very clean. Couldn't fault our stay.
