"Very welcoming staff; chef made steak pies especially for us as we didn't want the vegetarian or curry pies he was making.
Lovely big beeŕ garden with terrific views.
Only downside is the extremely tight entrance to the car park."
"Clean and modern room in a lovely peaceful location. Check in and communication was excellent. Will definitely stay here again when visiting next time."
"Lovely place. Only saw staff member at breakfast - no reception. Superb building. Either my TV didn't work or I couldn't work it. Could do with better signage outside - no hotel name visible"
"Beautiful old hotel. Lovely breakfast. Staff very pleasant and helpful. Stayed during the heatwave last week so bedrooms were incredibly hot but fans and bottles of iced water provided. No air conditioning which would have helped enormously but did not spoil our stay. Foyer and lounge areas coolest part of hotel. Would definitely stay again, though hopefully not in a heatwave next time."
