Pros:

Beautiful grounds. Huge rooms. Large heated pool and hot tub. Nice nature trail near by. Lots of different food selections at the restaurant and pub on site. You can walk to the entrance of the nature reserve. It is just to the right of the hotel entrance and five minutes up the hill. We really enjoyed our time there.

Cons:

Nothing
