Very comfortable bed and room, excellent staff and very welcoming to our dog.
Pros:

The staff were brilliant, especially the lovely lady on reception, she was lovely to our dog, not always guaranteed even in 'pet friendly' establishments. All other staff and the room was lovely too.

Cons:

Some of the decor is looking a little tired and in need of some are, for example the drapes in the breakfast room, they were frayed in places.

Friendly helpful staff
Nice spacious room with comfortable bed
Lovely views
Good food in the pleasant restaurant which has good acoustics

Cons:

Bad playlist in the restaurant
We had to ask for vegetables with our main courses - which would have just been a plate of meat ( expertly and beautifully cooked though it was)

Slightly underwhelmed.
Pros:

Room was spacious , with a really nice bathroom, breakfast was very nice, good views from the dining room.

Cons:

We were expecting a room with a glass wall overlooking a beautiful view, we didn't get this, in fact they only have 2 rooms as pictured on their website, and one of these was out of action. Diner was high quality but for some reason we were limited in our choice of menu, and then discovered that the next table were offered a wider choice of meal. It was a special celebration weekend for us and so we were hoping for top notch, unfortunately we got a couple of notches down from that.
