i am a blue badge holder - the facilities for parking were poor as directors and committee have priority. the young waitress at dinner table was disinterested, she was ignorant of words such as teetotal, carbohydrates, diabetic. Room 101 - the bed is located far too close to the window and curtain, making it virtually impossible to move past the bed without touching and therefore opening the curtain. My wife was extremely pleased with the massage.

Lovely hotel, standards dropped this time

I’ve used this hotel previously without issue. This time however, standards had dropped. WiFi is terrible it was last time but they said it was unusual, most business travellers require decent WiFi. The room had the thin papers used for smoking weed remaining on the floor, the sink was blocked even when I removed the plug, and the window didn’t close properly, so much so with the high winds in the area it was noisy all night! All round experience was poor this time. Reception staff are lovely but offered nothing other than they were sorry. For a higher ended hotel like this pitches itself it lacks commitment to customer satisfaction.

Would highly recommend!

A very welcomed arrival, receptionist was lovely and pleasant. Couldn’t have asked for more, the rooms were perfect, we were given a free upgrade to a newly refurbished room which was a lovely unexpected extra and very welcomed. The spa was great, and the food in the restaurant was well above average, all expectations were truly exceeded. Would definitely recommend!
