Really lovely option which we thoroughly enjoyed.
Pros:

Staff was great thanks Hugh, he was lovely, friendly and helpful.
We loved the restaurant and the room was roomy and great Outlook, not in town but just what we wanted, quiet, parking out front, and away from the hassles of city. Breakfast was great value.

Good breakfast, but no hot water to shower
Pros:

Friendly staff at check in and breakfast was good quality.

Cons:

No hot water for showering. The member of staff at breakfast tried to tell us that we hadn’t operated the taps
correctly, and the table beside us. He then agreed that there was no hot water in our rooms and said he’d released pressure in pipes to resolve. This didn’t fix it and we left the hotel with out being able to shower.

Reading other reviews this seems to have been going on for a while which is completely unacceptable.

Pros:

Une chambre immense, magnifique, qui donne sur la campagne. Un lit King Size. Petit-déj. varié. Personnel de réception très sympathique. Le personnel de service devait être en formation (tous de très jeunes gens un peu "empotés" !!) Parking gratuit. J'ai été malade un jour et on m'a apporté à manger dans ma chambre ! Personnel très serviable. Petit-déj. varié.

Good, but check about hot water
Pros:

Large parking lot. Personnel were super, friendly, and wanted things to be right. Food in the dining room was very good in the evening.
Breakfast was good, which included a side board of items along with menu for hot items

Cons:

Had great hot water in the evening. But in morning, no hot water.
Seem to be having problems with the pump after speaking with the front desk (she was trying to work on the problem. Seemed the boiker working but not getting to rooms). However, I had read this in a review prior to booking.
One of us usually showers in the morning but showered in the evening, which was good because, as stated, there was no hot water in the morning.
