Pros:

Attended a wedding, function room was lovely and staff were very helpful

Cons:

Asked for room servive breakfast which we were told only cold buffet was available, bit disappointed with that. Hot breakfast in Terrace was limited and had to ask evey rime for a coffee refill rather than giving a pot of coffee. Tried to turn heating up in room but didn't work so found it alittle cold

Amazing staff and great food!
Pros:

The staff were incredible - couldn’t do enough for you. Although the room was a basic twin room, the beds were very comfortable and the shower was a good size. Great food especially the breakfast - good selection and quality !

Cons:

The room was a little old with a couple of cracks and some dust but relatively clean!

I would stay there again , I would have different expectations.
Pros:

Pleasant location, attractive grounds, lovely staff. Room comfortable.

Cons:

Restaurant not very attractive, food not great, passages very dark. A lot of carpet felt a little musty. The reception area was lovely but it felt like the further into the building you went you were in a different hotel. I suppose this made it a little disappointing.

Etwas mockiger Geruch im barbereich. Hotel ist deutlich in die Jahre gekommen, alte Teppiche. Vielleicht etwas weniger Bügelutensilien und dafür Wasser im Zimmer.
