We enjoyed our stay and would recommend the hotel. The only slight concern was that the food offered on the limited menu was somewhat bland. Nicely presented but lacked a little in the taste department.
Ok for a short break
Disappointed the menu remained the same throughout our stay which limited our choices. The staff were friendly & polite.
The on-site leisure facilities & pool were being refurbished so that was also a little disappointing although my husband enjoyed the alternative gym at a nearby location. I would have preferred to use the hotel pool & didn t travel to the alternative facilities.
Midweek Treat
My husband and I were looking for a good dog friendly hotel, for a short break, to celebrate our Silver Wedding Anniversary together.
Staff were very helpful and we had a room in the annexe on the ground floor, which was good, and coincidentally the same room allocated to us on a previous visit, at a time when we stayed a full week on a bed and breakfast basis.
On this occasion we had known of the spa being renovated and although an alternative was offered, it was not what was our priority. We had our evening meals served in the bar, where our dog was allowed, and had a lovely couple of days, using room service for breakfast.
Great for a mini break
Easy to find, staff helpful offering different room away from a possible rowdy night as a wedding disco was planned for the evening we arrived.
Rooms clean and tidy and we were able to relax and have some quite time.
Grounds were amazing with some of the best designed bushes/trees I have ever seen.
We thoroughly enjoyed our mini break and would return.
Another great stay
The second time we have stayed. Nice room but no view. Great cocktail menu. Dinner was great. Breakfast not so. One the whole a very enjoyable stay, will be returning !
Excellent from start to finish
Booking was easy and confirmation received immediately.
Very friendly and helpful welcome at the Hotel. Room had been upgraded and was very good.
Restaurant was excellent, All staff were exceptionally friendly and extremely good value for money.
