We have stayed here with our dog on several occasions and will continue to do so. We came with friends ( on our recommendation and they also loved it ) A lovely property with rooms to match and great staff throughout. We felt the breakfast doesn’t meet the standards set by the rest of the hotel. Milky scrambled eggs and over cooked poached eggs along with insipid bacon make the breakfast a less than enjoyable experience. I requested a smoothie and was met with blank stares and my request for Tobasco sauce drew a similar response. Otherwise a great stay but brekkie still in the last century.

The breakfast was not as spectacular as I had expected. And the gluten free options were poor. The price of drinks in the bar are eye watering. And the pool area could do with a revamp. Also bizarrely there were 7 pool beds.
