Reviews and Ratings
Initially, I had hoped for a more comfy room, but the one I got was basic and not as clean as expected. However, the spotless grounds were beautiful. The service was exceptional, with staff who went above and beyond to make our holiday special. The location was perfect for exploring nearby attractions, striking a lovely balance between charm and convenience. The dining experience was good overall, with great food, although the breakfast timing was not ideal for business travelers.
The hotel rooms were ordinary, not much better than a Premier Inn but cost considerably more. The disappointment included the heating not working on arrival, and the rooms not being clean enough. However, the room I stayed in was cozy and comfy, providing everything I needed.
My stay at the hotel was a delightful experience overall, with lovely views from the spacious and clean room with a hot tub on the private balcony. The service was exceptional, and the location was perfect for a relaxing getaway. However, the noisy rooms were a downside to an otherwise fantastic stay.
