Excellent 2 night break
Pros:

Great location. Parking and access easy. Breakfast varied and tasty. Bedroom clean spacious and beds very comfortable. Staff were welcoming and gave great service.

Cons:

Nothing. Only small thing to make it 100% would be to provide sealed bottled mineral and sparkling water in the room. We had tap water in a bottle which was ok.

Disappointed this time. Cowslip room to be avoided if you don't like a large plastic bath with ice white up lighters
Pros:

Good location. Lovely gardens. Clean. Large room. Quiet. This is a great hotel in good location but we did not like it this time.

Cons:

Bath in room. Mattress questionable. Pillows needing updating. Bathroom unworkable and dated. Receptionist not suited to front of house role.
