Pros:

This is my 3rd stay here in a short space of time. The standard is consistently excellent.

Cons:

Nothing, everything about this place is geared towards guest experience. From Thomas on reception right through to all the wait staff and housekeeping.

No Child Protection
Pros:

There were numerous unattended children, aged about 10 years old, running amok, kicking doors, and fighting each other throughout the day and late evening on different occasions. Hotel staff did nothing. These children were on a trip, and their supervisors were nowhere to be seen. The Hotel staff did not respond to complaints. Child protection was not a concern for the children's supervisors or the Hotel. Offered another room away from the children running amok unsupervised. Had a predator been staying in the Hotel the outcome could have been serious.

Pros:

I found the staff very helpful and nothing was too much to ask for. Lovely hotel overall.

Cons:

There wasn't enough plug outlets r plugs that you can charge your phones etc. it is a small thing but needed these times. Plus we had a family room and there was only 2 mugs and no little biscuit or water bottles people look for these little touches after travelling long journeys.

Lovely relaxing Valentine's break
Pros:

We had a lovely last minute deal, gorgeous large room which was nicely decorated for valentine's. We had a lovely dinner in Off the Bone Gastropub, we were served by Catherine was was just excellent. The band finished at 9pm which was a little disappointing for a Saturday night. Checkout was very rushed as Receptionists were dealing with an incident. Just took our keycard and no thanks you or how was everything.
