Very relaxing and peaceful
Pros:

The room was clean, and very spacious. Staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful. There was a great selection of food on the bar menu and as a solo traveller on this occasion I felt very safe. I would definitely stay here again

Cons:

The room was a little cold, there was no extra blankets in the wardrobe which would have been a nice option

Comfortable and basic
Pros:

Comfortable, Lorna on reception was such a warm and kind lady. Staff in bar were distant and lacked connection with customer although a food issue was dealt with in an exemplary fashion however the staff member had to be pursued to get his attention

Cons:

Lacks warmth and attention to detail, cobwebs in room, cracks viable in walls at various locations. Dining room lacks warmth and atmosphere.

It was fine
Pros:

Breakfast and bar food were very good

Cons:

My room was not serviced. I was there for 2 nights. My bed was not made nor were towels replaced. I was lucky I was in single occupancy as I had another towel. However I feel the room should have been serviced for my second night
