Honeymoon
Liked: The staff were amazing, the food was outstanding, and the room was comfortable and clean.
Disliked: Limited parking.
Check in needs improving if catering for coach loads
Liked: Such a great location and well furnished & clean. Great selection of wines 🍷
Disliked: I arrived at the same time as a coach, and was asked to step aside whilst everyone off the coach checked in. I’d been travelling solo for around 7 hours, and did not feel welcome! It’s the third time I’ve stayed in 18 months and I’d think twice about staying again, all guests should be treated equally. It was pretty gutting to be honest as I’d been looking forward to staying again,
Liked: Great location, & Stylish
Disliked: Parking
Enjoyed stay
Liked: Breakfast was good waited awhile for our food Location was good room was nice and cosy
Disliked: As above breakfast was good but waited awhile
