Beautiful hotel rooms are so nice and luxurious. The breakfast had a really good variety but it was extremely busy and uncomfortable when there was rude people who had no sense of spatial awareness I found it uncomfortable and had breakfast in my room. Also be aware that the bar area is closed Staff were really good and helpful in every area.

Staff were nice, kids received a teddy on arrival which they loved, location is good and breakfast buffet was good. The external grounds of the hotel are also picturesque but inside the actual hotel room it felt dated and didn’t reflect the value we paid for the room. We also didn’t realise until the reception told us that kids under 16 are not allowed to use the hotel pool which was a bit upsetting to the kids.

Check in took 45 minutes. Then one room wasn’t ready despite us arriving at around 3.45. We were told to wait in the one room until the other was ready. Walked to different building in pouring rain. All luggage delivered to bedroom no 1. My son complained and we received a credit to our room. As I was celebrating my investiture I had met my brother and his wife on the Saturday. We came back to the hotel for drinks. The only space for 5 of us in the bar was a booth - the last of 3 near the door. The booth was so narrow we had trouble getting in. Our coats were hung over the back of the seats which made one side even tighter. To get to the toilet you had to go outside again - in the rain! My room was smaller than that of my son and his partner. After a very busy 2 days I went to my room early and wanted to watch TV in bed. Unlike my son’s room the TV was not on the wall in front of the bed but on the left. Uncomfortable to say the least. Beds were comfortable and bathroom facilities good. Would I recommend - no. Would I say here again - no.
