Rat
Pros:

Good size room

Cons:

The large rat jumping around upon our arrival when we first were pulling into the venue. No hairdryer in room, only 1 tea bag.
Croissant was chewy and no teapots

We were staying as it was my Birthday weekend. The hotel did put a chocolate plate in fridge for my
Pros:

The location was good for us. By car, you could travel to other surrounding areas which we did. Quite easily.

The room was comfortable & shower lovely. The fridge in room was handy too.

Cons:

The spa area and especially the changing rooms needed an upgrade. Only 2 showers & 2 changing rooms present wasnt adequate and it looked like it needed redecorating. It wasn't busy at the time I used them but if lots in there wouldn't be good!
In spa a jacuzzi would have been nice but didn't have one. It isn't worthy of 4stars. For that reason.

Overall Happy...... Service charge is not acceptable having paid so much already for Food.
Cons:

The Service Charge on Food is not acceptable. Felt like a surprise at the end of an already expensive meal.

Lovely bathroom
Pros:

It was clean and the room was a good size with a beautiful bathroom.
The restaurant and bar were nice with friendly staff. The waitress and chef went out of their way to cook something for my husband that wasn't on the menu,a very hot curry.

Cons:

we didn't like paying to park there. I know there is also a gym/spa onsite but hotel guests should get parking free or at least cheaper.
