Friendly staff and good food. Sadly, room need re-decorating and not suitable for business travel.
Such an amazing place to stay. Very friendly staff , rooms extremely comfortable and the view from room overlooking the fields was stunning. can definitely recommend and will be going there again .
Convenient, picturesque and clean property just off the motorway with excellent staff service.
Really warm welcome from check-in onwards which set the tone for the stay.
All staff were very friendly and the food was delicious.
Would definitely recommend a stay here.
Staff were helpful friendly always on hand to help especially after my husbands limb amputation he had done 4 days ago check in was easy and is a beautiful place to stay
Had a lovely 2 night stay here. Staff in reception, bar & restaurant were helpful & friendly. Room could of been a bit cleaner & the mattress was very uncomfortable, but the grounds & having the bar/restaurant there made up for it!
What a lovely little place this is !! Staff and manager very friendly and helpful. Cute motel style rooms, beautiful gardens and lovely bar. Breakfast was very nice too. We will definitely be back.
