Pros:

Lovely stafff, lovely location. Hotel room fabulous.

Cons:

Breakfast, some items were missing from hot buffet. They had not been topped up.
Spa area was very busy, maybe spa slots should be booked to limit numbers.
Lovely hotel but a little overpriced for what you get.

Pros:

History of the building
Grounds of the hotel, beautiful walks
Comfortable bed

Cons:

We had a few issues throughout the stay with cleanliness and forgotten dinner/breakfast orders. Issues didn't seem to be taken seriously when we addressed staff members on site about them. It's a beautiful hotel but felt it didn't live up expectations.
