I enjoyed it! The observations above are too help with future planning.
Pros:

Dinner on Saturday night, and two breakfasts excellent.
Lovely bedroom.
Nice ensuite - but see below.

Cons:

Being made to feel uncomfortable in the breakfast room from the very instant at 10am.
No-one offered to help with my suitcase in spite of severe mobility issues.
Both sets of stairs are very challenging.
No grab-handles near WC or in shower enclosure; no non-slip mat or surface in shower.
Shower water too hot, and adjusting mixer bar made no difference.

absolutely awful
Pros:

location good -

Cons:

they were unprepared for me, rooms had been flooded, I was not notified until I arrived, the room I was eventually allocated was cold, heating not on, dirty, TV switch too high up I had to stand on a chair (I'm 78), no staff around, nowhere to eat in the evening.

Pros:

The staff and the place was all really good everyone was friendly. The food was excellent and was really good value for money.

Cons:

Wasn't anything we didn't like. Only thing was that I had to ask for the heating to be turned on 3 times as it was cold and had been snowing heavily. But the stay was good and if I'm in that part of the country again I will stay there
