This place is a little gem, very well looked after.
Pros:

Our room was modern and the beds we’re comfortable
We loved our sea view and the lovely gardens
We had dinner in the restaurant in the evening and The food was all homemade. Portions were generous but not too much. We asked for bread and they brought nice fresh bread and butter. Breakfast was lovely too.
There is a new games room in the basement and a nice tropical pool with jacuzzi and sauna. This place is a little gem.
We got free passes for the Chine gorges which are lovely.

Cons:

Nothing

Very poor would not recommend it was definitely not worth the price, especially with no breakfast included.
Pros:

View was nice

Cons:

Very dated, tatty and not clean.
No water to fill up kettle and the kettle was too big to fill up in the bathroom basin which was very unhygienic, we had to use a glass to fill it up from the tap.
The towels provided were so old and frayed and discoloured as so old.
The bar area was not relaxing as people were waking through in their dressing gowns from the pool also a lot of through traffic from the people in the sister hotel that just wanted to use the pool.
The toilet was dirty when we arrived.

Seems that hotels policy is to charge for everything and make money, rather than to keep customers happy and have return
Pros:

Hotels grounds, garden, pool and location are exceptional.

Cons:

However, standard family room that we got allocated is very very basic. No space to move in the room at all, no storage to unpack or open suitcase. everything is outdated, dirty, dusty and old. Rooms desperately need an upgrade.
Shower was making horrible squeaky noise, kettle dirty and smelly.
Awful value for money , room charges are overpriced for what you get.
Plus hotel charges for full English breakfast for children and adults, no continental option. A bowl of cereal with toast for a child is £8.
