Service
8.8
Multiple mentions of friendly, helpful and efficient staff and a particularly helpful receptionist; service is a strong positive overall.
Location
7.8
Stunning setting and grounds frequently praised, with superb views — however several guests reported poor signage and difficulty finding the property, which reduces the score slightly.

Rooms described as beautiful, spacious in some cases and very comfortable beds; some negatives (small bathrooms for certain rooms, rooms reported as too hot) temper the score.

Good on practical amenities: laundry room, free parking, EV charging, access to sports centre noted. Some logistical issues (breakfast in separate building) mentioned but overall positive.
Value for Money

Cons:

Upgraded to the main house which was nice, but rooms are dated with cracking walls, no air con, shower was low flow, ‘luxury coconut shampoo and body wash’ provided that is literally the cheapest type of body wash you can buy in bulk…trying to be really posh but just not quite there

Above average
Pros:

All good

Cons:

Been asked for proof of room at breakfast. No one else was asked. Presume it was because we had work clothes on when others had uniforms

Pros:

Room was large, comfortable and clean. Bathroom was beautiful....large and clean with plenty of towels. The view from the bedroom was superb.

Cons:

Meals....once again Chapters Restaurant was unavailable due to a function. Why advertise it?
The buffet was limited for choice at night. The breakfast was average with overcooked sausages.

The cleanliness of the room, stains on the seat in the room look highly questionable or unhygienic. Shower is mouldy and silicone is peeling away.
