Pros:

Ev charging, gardens, layout of accommodation, bar and restaurant

Cons:

Not enough staff to cope with ordinary guests and coach parties staying. Arrangements for breakfast were shambolic for flow and replenishing of food.

Lovely hotel room staff lovely food terrible
Pros:

Lovely hotel great staff especially Isie & Sarah not sure if that’s her name she was dressed all in black & in charge on Sunday evening. Both great customer service thank you.

Cons:

My meal was burnt & potatoes were cold it should never have been sent out from the Kitchen however the lovely lady in charge explained the head chef was off. She would report it back to him and took the price of my meal off the bill. She couldn’t have been nicer so it would not put us off of eating there again. My husband‘s meal was quite nice..
Also no slimline tonic this needs addressing never been to a hotel who doesn’t supply light tonics!!!

Wonderful location, excellent staff and comfortable rooms.
Pros:

The location is very good and the grounds are wonderful for walking in. The swimming is large for a hotel pool and clean. The breakfasts were always well cooked with plenty of choices.

Cons:

We had a very disappointing meal in the hotel bar, we cannot comment on the restaurant, as we brought a dog, and therefore were confined to the bar area.

Pros:

This is a quality place. All comfortable and good food with glorious grounds and facilities. Staff were great but far too busy

Cons:

Far too busy with weddings and conferences to get any meaningful space or attention. Not a problem as this is their declared business but not an ideal venue for a couple or small group with a minute bar and staff focussing on large number groups. Not a parking space in sight!
