the staff was lovely. I switched rooms because the first room had no bathroom door. My complaints, ceiling needed to be fixed, no where to hang and store clothes. Sunday lunch was tasty and fun. They were filming a TV dating show in the restaurant

The hotel is beautiful and my room was gorgeous. The staff were lovely and attentive. I worried about noise from outside, given the location, but there was none. It is clearly very well insulated from noise.

It would have been handy if there was a usb socket. Also the room above was very squeaky on the floorboards and noisy people in the hallways.

Great Stay
Great stay, lovely hotel and helpful staff. Hotel smelt lovely when you walked in, nice decor, toiletries were fab and the room was very spacious. The only downfall was our room had skylights and the blinds didn't cover the windows so it was very light, very early. Didn't ruin the stay though!
