I am basing this review on the price paid and in that respect the photo on Hotels.com is flattering to say the least. The room was fine but the rest of the place was really tatty.
It is very tired and certainly substantially over priced. Of all the hotels we have stayed in this was by far the most disappointing.

The ladies who served breakfast were absolutely fantastic, super friendly and efficient. Unfortunately we were horrified by the appalling service on arrival, after an extremely long drive we were met by a grumpy member of staff who closed the bar 45 minutes earlier than advertised . This was a a trip we were most looking forward to, after visiting several times before, we found the hotel run down, poorly maintained and lacking in cleanliness in several areas.
Beautiful hotel, comfortable rooms, great staff! Definitely the best we stayed at om the NC500, and a highlight of the trip.
Food is ambitious, but has room to improve.
We stayed in the Millerâs Cottage 2 and thoroughly enjoyed it. Wonderful dining for dinner and breakfast in the Forss House dining room. A lovely stop for us on our NC500 road trip!
Loved the mill house we stayed in. The main house is a beautiful old place. The service was lacking waited at the bar for a half hour before someone arrived, his bartending skills and personality needs some improvement.
Our bedrooms were excellent.. recently modernised⊠the main hotel was ok service hit and miss but perhaps a skeleton crew as just after NewYear⊠had to request for the fires to be lit and the lighting was not good resulting in no ambianceâŠhowever the food was excellent..
