Very welcoming, a pleasant stay.
Pros:

We were there for a friends ‘wake’ which was well catered and staff very switched on and attentive. All subsequent catering was excellent. Dinner very good (chicken schnitzel) and salmon with scrambled egg for breakfast splendid!
My room was rather too warm and window only openable a crack so not a perfect night’s sleep; plus fridge rather noisy so had to turn off as discussed with reception. Overall we were very impressed and would stay again.
