Sadly Disappointed.
A little dissatisfied. There are fire places in the rooms as well as all public spaces but because it wasn’t yet the 1st of May (even though we were there over the Easter long weekend), we were not allowed to light them. (It was cold). No music / fires / atmosphere in the public spaces makes it cold & uneventful to go there. No walking trails on the property, so if you want to walk you need to drive to another. Your breakfast is complimentary but you must pay to have a cappacino (only filter coffee included- which as a coffee lover - honestly wasn’t very nice coffee at all). The steam room at the spa wasn’t working when we went for our treatments.
The staff however are really lovely and doing their best to make it welcoming.
If you’re happy to sit in your room all weekend then it is perfect, but for a more active couple, unfortunately it’s not the right fit.

The room a deluxe room, was just lovely with nice views . There were also nice gardens which we did not have much time to investigate. We are going again this year to put that right! We enjoyed a good evening meal and breakfast the next day. There were several cosy looking rooms which we did not have time to enjoy.

We only stayed one day but the Property impressed us. It is a unique Hotel as it is an English cottage style. Staff are friendly and helpful.

We were celebrating a birthday and asked for the best rooms with a view, after being assured we would receive this. I confirmed our booking only to arrive and be given old rooms that were not upgraded. This put a damper on our entire celebration. I felt completely misled and deceived by the quality of room we received. Had I known I would’ve booked elsewhere. The first night of dinner booked, the food was inconsistent and possibly the worst pasta I have ever had. While the staff apologised, it didn’t make anyone feel more comfortable to order more food.

The old charm was wonderful, really enjoyed the room as it was spacious. The restaurant wasn’t great, staff weren’t very friendly and food was average. Otherwise we loved it

We loved how they treated us to a family room when we were only expecting a standard room. The staff are friendly and professional. We'll be back!
