Decent hotel
Decent hotel that is comfortable and well appointed. Lack of hotel staff is the only issue as there is never anyone on reception.

We are.coming back!!
Absolutely loved this hotel.
Beautiful touches that made all the difference. Hand written welcone with some aweet treats. Ear plugs and pillow spray were also a welcome addition (albeit being in the middle of a forest wasnt at all noisey) just one niggle, we followed the coffee pod machine instrucrions 3 times, but we still only got hot water. So much tea and coffee in the room, that we were still able to enjoy beverages without being too disappointed with the machine.

Faultless
Absolutely faultless. Beautiful rooms, comfy beds, luxury amenities and the breakfast was outstanding. The best poached eggs I have had outside of the USA.

Lovely hotel surroundings
A decent stay in wonderful surroundings. Nice room, well stocked with coffee and tea, ironing board etc and bramley shower products. Body lotion would be a touch.
Room was not cleaned but I believe that they usually are.
Late checkout (1 hour) is £25 extra unless you book directly. A little inflexible but maybe that’s me just expecting something for nothing and more a reflection of me than them. Will definitely return.

Beautiful and cosy
Excellent staff, amazing building very well decorated, extremely clean.
Slight issues with the plumbing (not a complaint just a helpful observation) the shower screen was not sufficient, could not adjust shower mixer for cold and the wash hand basin waste wasn’t able to cope with the flow rate from the tap needs to adjust plug.
Also wasn’t able to adjust TV settings.
These are minor teething issues with new fixtures.
Overall we enjoyed a very comfortable stay and would stay again, We shall recommend to friends.
Thank you for your wonderful hospitality, I wish you well in business.
