A wonderful stay and we look forward to a return visit in the summer months
Pros:

Staff interactions were all professional and friendly. Evening dinner in the restaurant was thoroughly enjoyable, breakfast buffet exceeded expectations. The cottage was warm and cosy for a wet weekend with many thoughtful extras not usually found in hotel rooms. An extremely enjoyable stay
