A nice hotel, staff were pleasant and food was very good jyst very diassapointed with the room. The room itself was spacious and clean but no view ... faced out to a wall up into trees and bushes ....not a big issue we werent gazing out the window it just made for a darker room but there was good lighting in the room. The main reason i wouldnt book again is that the heating wasnt working ... the room was freezing. I thought it might be on a timer so we huddled under the duvets (beds were comfortable thankfully). I did try every button and switch nearby and turning the knob on the central heating but nothing. Reported it the next day. Someone came down to look at it and confirmed the central heating wasnt working in the room do dropped down a small electrical heater. It wasnt too bad, took a while but took the chill out of the air. I did have to try 3 different plug sockets because the 1st two were giving a humming/staticy nouse and didnt sound good and when i plugged them out the plugvwas hot. Then later on that night we discovered via a near slip incident the grouting in the tiles on bathroom floor was wet. Reported to reception and again someone came up to check it. It was water seeping out from the seal around the toilet...obviously seeping when we flushed the toilet. Nothing they could do to fix it without taking up the toilet to reaseal it so put a towel around the base and gave us extra towels for the floor incase it got worse.Wouldn't be rushing back unfortunately.
