An interesting venue with good accommodation, charming and affable staff.
Pros:

The bedroom was well appointed, quiet and comfortable, and the shower was brilliant.

Breakfast was very pleasant. A lady I took to be of eastern European origin was in charge and ran a very smooth, efficient operation. The food coming from the kitchen for the buffet was well presented, tasty and not over-cooked.

While touring the grounds we chanced upon a member of staff, Mike (one of the night staff), who was a great ambassador for the hotel. He wasn't on duty but he went out of his way to show us the hotel grounds and explain the arrangements. Mike is a charming, kind and caring member of the staff.

Cons:

The only criticism I would offer of the bedroom is that one bedside light didn't work, and the sink's (very) hot tap turned on clockwise.

The restaurant was not having a good night. Although we had booked an arrival time the staff seemed to be overwhelmed by the number of covers. The staff were quite charming and affable but clearly lacked direction and coordination. The menu was quite short, 3 options each for the starter and main, and we chose just a simple pasta dish. It took an hour for this to arrive. The salad that I had ordered as a side dish never did turn up. The sparkling water I had requested sat on the maître’s desk for over a quarter of an hour until I asked the server to please fetch it.

The pasta dish was really excellent. To their credit, the serving staff did apologise for the missing salad.
