Excellent apart from Fire alarm!

Friendly staff and allowed us to check in 45 mins earlier. Pool was very nice and service was excellent . One really big downfall was the smoke alarm was triggered so all guest had to be evacuated out of the building at 4.am in the morning! With kids this was very difficult. Had to wait outside for nearly an hour till all was clear. We had no explanation from the hotel. I would appreciate something in return.

Beautiful hotel!

A lovely hotel! Full of charm and set in a gorgeous location. Having the resident cat made it even more special! The spa was a great feature, but the showers needed a little TLC as they were a bit smelly! Would stay again, can’t wait to come back!

We’ve stayed at this hotel several times and really enjoy the location and the service from the staff. Only let down on this stay we felt was that the rooms seemed a bit dusty. Surfaces could have been willed down with more care

Lovely room and grounds, poor meal service

The grounds are beautiful and the room was decent - thank you. I was disappointed with the restaurant; had to wait 10mins for our empty table to be wiped. We were not asked if we wanted a drink. I asked for some sauce when the meal arrived. I repeated the request to a different waitress. The sauce eventually came when I had almost finished my meal. The food was fine but I was not impressed with the meal service.

Very pleasant stay. Would have liked to know that the golf course surrounds the property before arrival but it will not stop me going back. I loved the furniture in my room. Very stylish and well looked after. The breakfast was also very good
