Comfortable- staff that accommodated for our complex needs
Pros:

We had a lovely meal in the bar however the portion size of the vegan option risotto was small which was a disappointment. Others had twice if not more for similar price- it was so tasty but not enough for walkers to re-fill and prepare for the next day.

Cons:

As above

Perfect base to explore local area
Pros:

Room vey comfortable. Shower was amazing. Evening meal and breakfast excellent.

Cons:

The doorbell constantly ringing during our evening meal was annoying.
Kept stubbing my toes on the step in the bathroom.
Instructions for the coffee machine would have been helpful. Also didn’t know what the different coffee pods were.
Used the kettle which left the water tasting of descaler or sterilising fluid
