The first family room was smelling of damp, towels were very damp, individual shower gels were empty& left in shower. Pubic hair on the toilet seat. There were 3 staying, only 2 mugs & the glass had toothpaste in the bottom of it. We were really looking forward to our stay. Heard the food was great, just didn't take the chance & ate elsewhere.

Requires refurbishing.
Fabulous grounds but the hotel itself is in need of serious refurbishment. Our room still had wood chip wallpaper on the walls. That said the staff were very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was great.

10/10 Exceptional

The room was well appointed and comfortable. I found the breakfast ok, and the attendant not observant of our needs despite it being not busy, at the time we were dining only the two of us. We would have lived more coffee and some yogurt but the attendant had left the area not to be seen again. We also were not given the code for the outside door and had to call to get back in after arriving back from dinner out. The greeting was warm upon arrival, the bedding nice. The shower took very long to achieve proper pressure and heat. It was a lovely place despite these things.
