Lovely, friendly and enjoyable stay
Pros:

Very friendly and accommodating. There was access to lovely food and drinks within the hotel and location was perfect for local attractions

Cons:

My stay was during the week for a few nights and within this time there was only one member of staff present. He was manning the bar, dealing with food orders and also cleaning the rooms. This resulted in small delays at time and gave a stressful feel to the stay. Albeit, I would assume there is more staff at weekends or busier periods.

Good
Pros:

Hotel staff lovely and welcoming. Bar and other areas clean and full of things to do. Well filled menu. Easy to use for keys for outside door and room door.
Location was brilliant also.

Cons:

The hotel room was small but manageable for 1 or 2 nights. The bed unfortunately was awful. So uncomfortable and I could feel the metal bed frame below when sat or laid on.
Also the lights in the room are turned on and off by a turning nob. Id turned it as far is it could go but the lights were still on slightly which was frustrating.
