Needs updating

Grounds lovely , staff friendly overall . Rooms quite outdated - corner bath badly stained - electric shower no power - ran either cold or scolding hot . Tv didn’t work due to poor signal . Carpets stained Cooked breakfast was lovely . But the fresh fruit was melon and tinned grapefruit - very 70’s . Outside was planted with lovely spring bulbs -

Nice hotel, unsure about 4 stars though.

Nice hotel, lovely grounds. Staff were super friendly and helpful and quickly solved an issue that we had. Restaurant and bar areas really nice and clean. Uncomfortable bed and pillows. Linen not great. Walls are thin, can hear everyone and everything outside. Emergency lighting outside ‘garden rooms’ stays on all night making it look like it’s daylight all night long. Bar prices and food a little too expensive.

Superb

Everything about this hotel is superb. The room is lovely and spacious with a big, super king bed. The bathroom bright and modern. This hotel is clearly very well looked after. The staff are incredibly polite and great at their jobs. The food... delicious, from starter through to dessert. I fully expect to return and look forward to doing so.
