An experience of two halves
Pros:

The property is in an amazing location.
We ate dinner in the restaurant last night and the food was amazing. The two young men that were serving in the restaurant were incredible and we loved it.
We had the garden suite, which had its own sitting room and a private door to the garden, it was so special

Cons:

Breakfast was an absolute shambles. When it arrived the food was really nice, however the servers had no idea what to do. We were shown our table, asked what drink we wanted, and were then forgotten about for half an hour. The serving lady said it was her first day so had no idea, there were two other gentlemen that kept coming and going, but not actually doing anything productive. Our breakfast experience ruined our impression of the whole stay

Pros:

Excellent location for a walk around the reservoir. Good breakfast. Large room and comfy bed.

Cons:

The restaurant was very expensive. No lift up the stairs, so may be inaccessible for those with mobility issues.

A very special place
Pros:

This is a very peaceful and special place. Thankyou

Cons:

Last time we visited there was music from the relevant time period playing as background music, which added to the ambience in the restaurant during meal times.
It didn't spoil our stay, and it isn't a criticism, just an observation. We love the hotel.
