Best breakfast ever + comfy bed.

We had a lovely stay - staff were friendly, room was gorgeous with a super comfy bed and great water pressure in the shower. Also loved the Rituals cosmetics in the bathroom. Food from the bar was delicious and incredibly good value for money - just be mindful the 'formal restaurant' is only open on some evenings. Breakfast was absolutely outstanding - best I've ever had in a hotel I think. Swimming pool, steam room and sauna were lovely to use in the morning before leaving.
