Pros:

Comfy, nice food, convenient.

Cons:

Service in the restaurant was a bit slow. Shower room was a bit tired with a shower door that wouldn't stay closed and tiles hanging off.

All great, other than a bit of work required on the showers.
Pros:

Friendly staff, superb food, comfortable beds and clean rooms

Cons:

Showers in the two rooms I used had issues containing the water into the hose which caused poor power from the shower head.

Convenient location with comfortable rooms.
Pros:

Room comfy, good wifi, enough power sockets to be manageable. Plenty of towels. Location excellent and a reasonable amount of parking on site, with free parking around.

Cons:

The shower was feeble for thick or long hair. An extra power socket or two would be helpful but not essential.

Als we hadden geweten van de kleine bedden, waren we niet gekomen
Pros:

Leuke inrichting en we konden heerlijk buiten in de biergarden zitten. ‘s avonds lekker gegeten.

Cons:

Kamer was bijzonder klein en we konden net om het bed heen lopen. Het bed was maar 1,40 m en dat is echt erg klein voor Europese begrippen. Wij hebben er niet comfortabel geslapen. Raam kon amper open en bij vertrek vonden we de dame bij de receptie onvriendelijk.

After a long day at a wedding I was happy to be staying but you should reconsider your pricing
Pros:

The breakfast fry was very greasy. I couldn’t eat the white pudding or potato scone as they were saturated. The bacon was completely tasteless and was hard

Cons:

It is very overpriced @ £170. The room was dark and there was no heating on in the evening so the room was cold when we went to bed. We were at a wedding there and I have to say the staff were lovely . The woman receptionist when we arrived at 2pm was very abrupt to us and other clientele and she never smiled or welcomed us, not a good first impression
