This is the second time I have stayed here and I would certainly stay again.
Pros:

Breakfast was exactly as I expected. All items cooked well.

Cons:

The weekend breakfast times. I genuine think, as perhaps most of your customers do, that breakfast should go on till 11.00am, or even an additional half hour to 10.30am.

Overall, it was a very enjoyable stay, and we would gladly return.
Pros:

The location was convenient, and the breakfast was fabulous with a wide variety of options.

Cons:

I was disappointed that I was informed about the lift not working only after confirming my booking. While it did not affect us, this information should have been communicated in advance.
