Pros:

LOVED the bar area - lovely decor against the original stone buildings. Rooms were lovely, too. I stayed in The Haven.

Cons:

A little shame that the spa wasn't there, but this didn't affect us at all. Also a shame the hot tub in our room wasn't available either. The pool water was a bit cold!

A beautiful place to stay, we have visited on a few occasions, and to do so again
Pros:

The staff and the service we got was of a very high standard. Very attentive to our needs and requests, could not fault them

Cons:

Unfortunately, I found the bed to be very uncomfortable for me. I left with pain in my hips and lower back, and was up for most of the night. We also checked out early the. next day.

Boutique hotel … ur having a laugh !!
Cons:

The pool area was disgusting the hot tub had brown rings of muck around the inside, the pool water was murky. The changing room shower was freezing cold. The family room we had had no heating the thermostat was turned up to 30°c still stone cold. found a fan heater in wardrobe which we had to put on then had to switch it off has there was orange sparks coming from it. Bare in my I had my 6 year old autistic son with me. The bar staff are extremely rude, when asked for what room we were staying in had to sign the receipt we had the pen thrown at us, then they are too busy talking amongst each other behind the bar. My son had lost his teddy, baring in mind he’s autistic that teddy means more to him than anything else, my partner had gone back to the bar are to find it to no avail, he asked the night porter would he mind checking cctv, was told that it’s not important to him so no he won’t. This resulted in my partner having words with him. Eventually we found the teddy it had been kicked into a corner behind a door. 1 hour later we have a knock at the room door from the police, saying my partner had to leave. To which he did.Skip to 1am me and my son in bed trying to sleep knock at door from the night porter saying had reports of noise coming from the room, when I said we in bed trying to sleep but yes I’ve heard doors clattering but not from here he sharp changed his story to it’s from this area of corridor.
Think the staff need training in customer services this is meant to be a boutique hotel, I’ve had better service from a cheap nasty b&b in Blackpool and that’s saying something !! and the food was appalling that my son got. Would I go again CERTAINLY NOT !!
