Pros:

Hotel outside looks lovely, breakfast room is beautiful and breakfast was really good, huge choice.

Cons:

Our room was in desperate need of updating. Needs a new headboard, walls painting and windows attending to. Car parking charges were really high especially when your paying to stay in the hotel for a weekend. Was reall6 dissapointed, we have stayed here twice before and had nice rooms. I did ask was there any other rooms but was told they were full. Such a shame , we would not return to this hotel.

Hotel needs to up its game
Pros:

Breakfast adequate, but not giving a wow factor. Basic items, but still full english

Cons:

On arrival, dog faeces by the reception. Pointed this out to the receptionist and he removed. Entered lift to second floor. Dog faeces trod into floor. Again highlighted this to reception and cleaning crew sorted, with 2 Little ones with ourselves expected better hygiene from hotel.
