Excellent as always
Pros:

We come here for a stitching retreat twice a year. It's exactly what you need clean and comfortable rooms, the food is always good, but what makes this hotel shine is the staff, always approachable and friendly, the same faces every time and they really bend over backwards to help and make you feel welcome, see you on November guys you're brilliant!

Very disappointing for the money, particularly the breakfast. Nice people and event room though
Pros:

The hotel, and the bedrooms in particular, are dated.
The event room was very nice to be fair, and the bar areas were ok
Unfortunately the breakfast we had was completely cold. Very disappointing.
The staff were nice, but I couldn't recommend staying here.

Cons:

The bedroom decor was dated.
The shower was mediocre at best, and the sink didn't drain properly.
Breakfast was genuinely horrible. We had breakfast elsewhere after the first experience, and it was vastly superior, and cheaper too. Disappointing.

Pros:

Room was pretty basic in much need of a makeover. Bed was ok but the pillows were terrible, they looked ancient and well past the sell by date. Food is excellent though, I had breakfast and evening meal for 5 days of my stay and everything I ate was top quality

Cons:

Rooms are dated and so are the pillows

Cheap room to stay in the Annex accommodation but it’s is bare bones and could use some modernisation.
Pros:

Main building is nice.

Cons:

The annex where my room was is pretty tired.
