Overall perceived as a luxurious, recommendable stay and many guests would return, but a minority felt breakfast variety/bugs and occasional maintenance (parasols) could be better for the price.

Great location apart from 1 member of staff everyone was engaging and friendly
Pros:

Location and style of property
The ambience was excellent
Food quality was good
Secure parking
Garden

Cons:

The door to our room needs replacing it is difficult to open
Shower is ancient and worn
Bed too hard
The girl who was in the kitchen and cleared breakfast was unfriendly and didn’t smile you need to offer snack food for guests arriving mid afternoon as we did after a very long journey we didn’t expect to be directed to the local town we expected full facilities from a hotel of this price
