Pleasant stay overall
Pros:

Good value pre the holiday season kicking in. Pool was clean and quiet; children spent 3 hours in there playing. Sheets were clean, and the bedroom clean and tidy. Gardens were lovely & enjoyed the outdoor chess board. Lovely view from outside. Very good value bar snack at lunch time. Breakfast was better on day 2 of our stay; I felt the offering was generous and of reasonable quality. With a little attention to detail this hotel could be very nice. It is in a great location in terms of peace and quiet, with the option to drive to eateries etc in less than 5 minutes.

Cons:

Room was dark with no view, and wasn’t the one we had booked. Bathroom could do with an upgrade. The potential for this hotel is immense if some additional funding were provided. Not a massive fan of dogs being in hotel rooms and would prefer there to be reserved rooms for guests with animals only. Towels could do with a refresh in the rooms; pool towels were better. Perhaps some outdoor seating adjacent to the pool, but not sure how that would work with the fire doors…could be a good option. Bar drinks could be elevated with slices of lime/lemon etc/smarter glass for a gin & tonic, rum & coke etc. I would stay again with my children but during off-peak season.

Disappointing
Pros:

Breakfast was good. View from breakfast room was lovely

Cons:

On arrival the pool was closed, nothing on the site or an email to tell us the pool shut at 5, that was the reason we chose that hotel so we were very disappointed. Unable to open the window any further our room was like an oven.
