Great location but food overpriced
Pros:

Friendly staff and great location.

Cons:

Cottage bedrooms in need of a refurb which is happening under new ownership. Food in main restaurant is massively overpriced - I can eat in some of London’s best restaurants for less. Same goes for the wine list

I had high hopes but felt disappointed - beautifully put together but average service overall.
Pros:

The decor, the room

Cons:

The service in the bar area was poor. Overpriced for the quality of food, which was good but not as great as I thought it would be. I don't think they should charge £25 per dog on top of a premium price. Breakfast again good, service average there too. Served but no check done on anything else we needed.
