Fabulous.
Pros:

A beautiful building with character & a very spacious bedroom & bathroom. A lovely comfy bed. The staff were brilliant. The gardens are beautiful.

Cons:

The Hotel needs some TLC in some areas. On our first breakfast the waitress was on her own & needed more help. The second breakfast was much more organised & quicker.
