Fantastic last minute night away

Room was a little more dated than others we've stayed in at this hotel but still totally spotless and even though it was a standard double the bed was enormous. Staff were pleasant as always and the food superb fabulous stay.

Reasonable breakfast with usual selection of cooked options. One small comment about the need to ask for coffee/tea …. an individual pot or press would have been appreciated. Restaurant took over an hour to serve pasta dish but management refunded when I decided to abandon waiting. Good sports facilities. Quiet environment. Parking onsite and free WiFi was a plus. Generally a positive stay in a nice convenient location.

Poor

Our room was hour and half late for check in, I had paid extra for chocolates and wine package which wasn’t in the room. Was told to wait in the bar and they would come to find us, they didn’t. And had to find out the room was actually ready at 4pm but nobody told us

Perfect for a relaxed stay

A lovely hotel, the room was beautiful, very spacious. Spa excellent. The only negative was the bar meal, the service was not the best and errors made during order process. Otherwise a lovely stay, would recommend
