Pros:

Staff were very helpful, friendly & polite. I mentioned that the chair at the desk in the room was wobbly & the plug in bathroom sink was missing...both were dealt with quickly. Location was perfect with lovely grounds you could walk round.

Very close to where we wanted to be but would not stay there again
Pros:

Breakfast above expectations for a buffet
Dinner was good but the menu could have been more interesting

Cons:

Fire Alarm at 6 am and no staff doing a roll call of guests standing in the very poorly lit area outside the front door. Luckily a false alarm but not much of an apology by the one staff member who appeared to be on site.
No hot water for a shower on the last day at 7 - 8 am
Very dismal lighting in the room - had to ask for an extra light, and even that was not enough
No comfortable lounge area for pre and post dinner drinks etc

Good hotel and grounds. Very commercialised set up. Overcomplicated room pricing structure.
Pros:

Room was good, spacious for a superior double. Good, if basic standard.

Breakfast was excellent.

Evening meal, good.

Cons:

Bathroom plumbing needed maintenance - toilet flush weak, basin and bath drainage poor.
