Pros:

I absolutely love this hotel, stayed there twice already (writing my second review now) and really enjoyed the stay in both cases. It seemed to me that the quality of breakfast has even improved (was already great last year). Love the views too, both from the rooms and from the restaurant. I'd recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a relaxing and peaceful stay!

Good location and facilities but rooms that only catered for 2 singles not acceptable for couples.
Pros:

Good facilities. Bar food good. Staff friendly and helpful.

Cons:

For the cost we should have had a proper double bed, not 2 singles put together which collapsed in the middle!

Amazing place but need improvement with cleaning
Pros:

An amazing place we had a suite, was £322 for one night which we found fair, room so spacious beautiful beds.

Cons:

No one answer the phone bedding not left for our child or a bed had to make do. Fridge still have people before in olives and used ice cream so that mean fridge wasn’t re premised for us. Hot water took 12 min to come through what a waste of water.
