I enjoyed my stay .
Pros:

The breakfast served was very good . I expected other options would have been set out and available .. as standard practice . I had to ask for juice , no cereal put out , no yoghurt available.

Cons:

As abov
I think table service for the evening meal and drinks would have been better as the bar got busier it took longer to order a meal and additional drinks

Pros:

Vegetarian Friendly. The first hotel we have ever been that has plant based milk in room with the tea and coffee facilities. Also, a good vegetarian menu in the restaurant.
