Shelley, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

The grounds are nice and the area wonderful.

The rooms are on the small side and so are the bathrooms but the bed was very comfortable and had some nice touches. Tea and coffee and biscuits. The menu wasn’t great but what we had was quite good.

Cosy welcoming hotel

We really like this hotel. The staff are very friendly and helpful. We liked our room and it was cosy too. We thought the newly renovated dining room was delightful but would have appreciated stronger lights so we could read in the bar area. A lovey stay and hoped to return soon.

Fabulous and friendly

Very friendly staff made this a thoroughly lovely experience. From the glass fo wine handed to you on arrival, you are left with the impression that the staff simply can't do enough for you. Excellent food in the restaurant (supper and breakfast) with prompt service thoughout. Even thought this was only a business stay, I would highly recommend this hotel to people visiting the area.
