A very comfortable and enjoyable stay and one we would be very happy to repeat and recommend.
Pros:

We were given a very friendly and informative welcome.
Having decided to use the hotel restaurant for our evening meal, the food was excellent, and again, very friendly and welcoming staff.
Breakfast was pretty good too.
Thank you everyone, I hope we have the occasion to come and stay again and would definitely recommend.

Cons:

Towels could have been newer, although laundered well, they were clearly tired and beyond being used for guests especially given that everything else was such a good standard. Think this let it down although only a little.

I'll stay here every time I am in the area.
Pros:

I have never seen this before - I mentioned during dinner in the evening before that I am lactose intolerant.
When I got to breakfast Leah had lactose free milk and butter prepared for me.
Maybe that's a little thing to you but I have NEVER received such a treatment in any hotels.

Cons:

I loved your scents in the room but they must have been cranked up to maximum and it gave me a bit of a headache. Had to vent the room for an hour.
