A perfect overnight stay. Thank you.
Pros:

Breakfast ,served by Lily in an efficient,friendly way, was delicious. Good quality yoghurts and selection of croissants and fresh fruit were enjoyed before Eggs Florentine and scrambled eggs,smoked salmon and mushrooms. We appreciated being able to choose the type of coffee we wanted to drink.Food in the restaurant the night before ,served by Sophie ,exceeded expectations. The roast beef was tender,pink and perfectly cooked..After serving all day Sophie was still giving 100% to her job. We can highly recommend the small pudding and coffee option. Creme Brulee and shortbread proved an excellent choice.We appreciated sparkling water in a carafe too.

Cons:

It would have been good to have 2 chairs in our bedroom......this is only a very personal requirement and didn't in any way spoil the enjoyment of our stay
