Lovely building and gardens. Great breakfast and great location. Issue with TVs needs to be addressed or guests should b
Pros:

Location, gardens and food.

Cons:

Very poor tv signal and it’s apparent this is an issue across the hotel that the hotel are well aware of as we heard others complaining. This needs to be addressed. Shower was not very good.

A comfortable and enjoyable stay with exceptional service that went above and beyond.
Pros:

What did you like about the property?
The property was clean, well-maintained, and had a very relaxing atmosphere. The facilities were excellent, and everything was presented to a high standard. A special mention to the gentleman who checked me in on the 25th at around 4:45pm — he was incredibly professional, welcoming, and provided outstanding service. He even upgraded us to a more spacious room, which made our stay even more comfortable. I couldn’t thank him enough for his kindness and hospitality.

Cons:

There wasn’t much to dislike, though a few small improvements could be made to enhance the overall experience.

Pros:

staff all great. Spa very lovely. Food good. Towels amazing, soft & luxurious. Beds were so comfortable.

Cons:

Coffee machine at breakfast tasted like a coffee machine, not fresh brewed coffee which was disappointing.
Understand it was busy but we did feel rushed with our dinner, I know you had full schedule thought & needed to get us out.
Bedroom very hot even though radiator off, window open & it was only 17 degrees outside. Shouldn’t have been so hot. Must be roasting in summer
