Come here if you want to feel at home but pampered like royalty.
Pros:

Felt like home but with a side of true luxury. Everyone and I mean literally every single one who works there that I’ve come across was far too nice, helpful, attentive (but not in an overbearing robot-like way) and just so lovely. Also their restaurant offers great food. The tasting menu is not to be missed.

Cons:

Literally nothing

A fantastic stay at an iconic hotel
Pros:

We had a great stay from the moment we arrived to a friendly welcome and were shown to our room with great views of the gardens. The staff are friendly and knowledgeable and service is really good. The location is fantastic, both the hotel grounds and the surrounding area. We enjoyed meeting Caitlyn as she starts her new career at the hotel - we felt we had made a new friend! We can't wait to return!

היתה לנו חוויה. נהדרת .
Pros:

מלון יפיפיה ממוקם בראש ההר. חוויה מדהימה ויופי אינסופי. צוות קשוב לכל בקשה, במיוחד בת׳ המקסימה. ארוחת הבוקר טובה מאוד מחומרי גלם מקומיים.

Cons:

היה קצת חם בחדר במהלך יולי. כדאי לגוון את התפריט הקבוע בארוחת הערב שהיתה מצויינת.

Pros:

Staff were very friendly and helpful, food was 5*, the hotel has just finished a refurbish and is immaculate. Bed was huge and soft, linen crisp white good quality cotton.
View from our room was fantastic and its a 10 minute scenic drive to the harbour.
I didn't fish, but if you have your own gear fishing is free on hotel beat. If your partner allows it.

There is a good record collection, a music room and a good book collection in the reading room. The morning room is bright , sofas are comfy and there is also a bar lounge area.

Cons:

Leaving

Beautiful hotel in rural Wales
Pros:

Beautiful well appointed room (deluxe double) that had been newly refurbished. Very thoughtful facilities in the room. Food at the restaurant was very tasty, perhaps a little on the expensive side. Staff were so friendly providing us with tips for walks in the area. Really nice breakfast freshly cooked to order.

Cons:

If I'm being picky the pillows and mattress weren't quite to our taste but still quite comfy. Would have been good to have different pillow options.

Lovely hotel in a peaceful and beautiful setting. Especially suitable for adults.
Pros:

I booked this for my elderly parents, brother a niece. It was ideal. They could eat in the restaurants, and it was peaceful, with lovely grounds and views, away from busy coast as it was half term. The rooms were lovely and freshly refurbished. The beds were comfortable. The service was friendly and polite, and any requests were met wherever possible. The food was generally very good, and elegantly presented. All but 1 courses were excellent ( four people expecting high standards, eating 2 breakfasts and 2 dinners). They would be very happy to go again.

Cons:

The service at dinner was occasionally a bit slow. The steak in one meal was a little tough.
