schönes altes Manor mit Atmosphäre
Pros:

Schönes großes altes Haus mit freundlichen Mitarbeitern und schöner Aussicht Richtung Küste. Da das Restaurant geschlossen hatte und es draußen stark regnete bekamen wir im Salon eine riesige kalte Platte angerichtet.

Cons:

nichts

Nicht sehr zufrieden, mit dem Preis-Leistungsverhältnis.
Pros:

Super Lage ausserhalb von Abeporth

Cons:

Parkplatz für Hotelgäste sollte beim Haupteingang sein und nicht 100 m entfernt. Restaurantgäste heben meistens kein Gepäck dabei. Eincheckzeit von nur 1 Stunde ist limitierend. Die vielen 'Dos und Don'ts wirken störend. Die erste Person, die wir in der Eingangshalle antrafen, konnte leider nicht mal Grüssen.

Lack of staff at property. Returned at 20.15 on second night. Front door and bar already locked up and no staff around. This morning no-one available to facilitate a proper checkout

Lovely staff couldn’t have been nicer!!
Pros:

The staff were lovely and really helpful!!

Cons:

The breakfast was stated as included on booking.com, when we arrived we were told it wasn’t and we were told they would include the continental, cooked breakfast was £22.50 which we felt was very over priced.

I feel as though the hotel needs a little bit of updating in the rooms.

We had a lovely night away and the breakfast was excellent the team of workers were all very friendly
Pros:

Lovely welcoming place to stay with a great location

Cons:

We stayed in a garden room lovely decor
But it did smell a bit musty I guess it was a fairly old building and would presume in the winter it could get damp inside
We would like to return but see if we can get a room in the main hotel

A friendly staff in a beautiful building which maybe just needs a little TLC in some areas.
Pros:

Staff were friendly and helpful. We had a garden room which was spacious. Breakfast was excellent . Well cooked and hot when served

Cons:

Garden room was a bit musty and maybe needed a bit of TLC but was clean and comfort

Such a disappointment
Pros:

We paid for a ‘Delux double room’ with a large bed in the hotel. On arrival we were allocated a garden room away from the hotel with a small double bed ( three quarter not large as advertised )
Curtains were hanging off the rail . Room hadn’t been cleaned. At first our complaint was dismissed by the manager, who was verging on rude . On insisting he accompany us to observe the room he agreed to change the room . The second room had a large bed and was cleaner than the first but definitely not a ‘Delux room. ‘There were cobwebs and spiders everywhere . Windows and doors very dirty . Outside path was uneven and full of weeds .
On a positive note we return from a day out to find a bottle of Proscesso on ice in the room . The staff at breakfast were very nice , polite and friendly but the Continental breakfast was very poor . One over ripe banana for two days and some apples . There was some dried fruit and cereals available with a yoghurt . There was no fruit in a bowl or greek yogurt . No water , toast, cold meat or croissants. The cooked breakfast was average .

Cons:

All the building rubble and derelict buildings in the grounds .
Off handedness of manager
Room location had no view and was not cleaned properly
Uneven path with lots of weeds
