Spot on!
Pros:

Beautiful hotel, very clean and the bed was very comfy. Delighted with the fresh milk, snacks and bottles of water in the mini fridge. The coffee machine and selection of teas were perfect. And the sky tv in the rooms was a nice surprise!
We also enjoyed the Molton Brown toiletries. :) Will stay here again.
We never had the breakfast or dinner here as we were out exploring so will have to try these next time.
