Poor Value for Money
Pros:

The location.

Cons:

The room was poorly equipped for the price. There was no air conditioning, fan or fridge, making it very uncomfortable in the warm weather. The two small bottles of water in the room were chargeable at £25, which felt excessive. I was also charged £50 for a Z-bed that was never provided. Although I was promised a refund, I was still waiting for it five days later. In addition, there were spiders and insects in the room due to the lack of insect screens. Overall, I felt the hotel offered poor value for money.

Disappointing and definitely a waste of money and we will never return to this hotel.
Pros:

Breakfast was lovely.

Cons:

We paid a large amount of money for 4 nights in a junior suite for a bit of comfort and relaxation but the first room they put us in before moving us to a better room was disgusting. It was shabby, smelly needed refurbishing and definitely not worth the money. The bathroom was awful and the shower unit was rusty and had mould on the walls. The sofa was stained all over and the carpet was sticky.

Not informed about event
Pros:

Venue is beautiful, room facilities very good, wedding lovely

Cons:

We weren't informed there would be a football screening on the lawn directly outside our room. There were hundreds of people gathered there, and the noise continued into the early hours, which had a significant impact on our stay. Had we known in advance, we would have requested a different room.

On checkout I gave feedback to staff and was promised contact from management but haven't received this despite chasing.

It was a huge oversight not to inform paying guests they would be kept up past 0100, but I suppose they made enough money from the event not to bother.

A diamond in disguise.
Pros:

The bedroom was very lovely

Cons:

Felt that their priority was events rather than guests paying £160/ night. Restaurant was shut for a wedding even though I had asked two days before if I could book at any time and was told yes. The open air football event finished at 12.30 am and I was kept awake until 2.30 am with staff tidying up and slamming doors. Needs a bit of a spruce up as the hotel and grounds felt very tired and run down.

Comfortable hotel with friendly staff
Pros:

Quiet and comfortable room, good dinner in the stables with friendly staff. Tasty breakfast including good gluten free options

Cons:

It's a little tired in places and the location is not that convenient. Also there seems to be a very large charge on bottles of water in the room which are usually given as complimentary in other hotels.

Having said that I would stay again
