Lovely setting with good facilities
Pros:

Friendly staff
Modern and functional ensuite facilities
Very comfortable beds

Cons:

It’s an old building so the noise of guests above was quite intrusive (but unlike modern hotels there were no noisy doors slamming).
Restaurant lacked atmosphere and at breakfast the white table cloth had not been changed from evening before.

Great Location
Pros:

Nice location lovely grounds

Cons:

Upon booking I specified Gluten Free for breakfast which was noted could accommodate.
Unfortunately despite reminding re Gluten Free on checking in, the breakfast team were not aware of my requirements.

In fact it was 2 days before I even had sight of tyhe breakfast menus .
Eventually on day 3 my last day the Breakfast issue were resolved.

The two evening meals I had were nice, however they were À la carte and so this was reflected in the price and portions .

I did find a really nice pub close by The Fox and Duck Rotstone as an option for evening meal

All in all I would possibly book again due to location IF the breakfast choices were guaranteed on booking.
