Clean, friendly and popular
Pros:

Great location for vineyard we were visiting nearby. Friendly helpful staff. Popular with locals.

Cons:

Bit too child friendly for us. Lots of inflatable bouncy things for children which caused more noise than we’d like.

Does everything it says on the tin and has extremely helpful staff. Spot on.
Pros:

Staff were friendly and extremely accommodating, particularly the chef and restaurant staff. The room was clean and well designed. Shower was particularly good. Beds were comfortable and room had all the facilities you need. Essentially the hotel does everything it says it will do and has extremely helpful staff to boot. Inclusive breakfast.

Cons:

Instant coffee for breakfast was a bit disappointing but that was about it. Some road noise from adjacent A6.
