Ok, but wouldn't stay again.

The setting for this hotel was amazing, the building and grounds were lovely, but once inside the hotel is very tired, i know its old and probably part of its old charm but tread bare carpets and broken bathroom floor tiles plus stains on the bedroom carpet in my opinion really lets it down plus the breakfast at £25 a head is really below par.

Turned up at 20:15 after a 13 hour day looking forward to a late dinner but the kitchen was closed! No information telling me this restriction, only an email from the hotel encouraging me to book a table in the restuarant. Staff helped where they could and were great but I had to phone a take away delivery which didn't arrive until another hour later.

Lovely hotel & brilliant staff

Alway love to stay at this hotel. Fabulous staff, Richard & Emma are brilliant. Unfortunately I won’t be back and loved staying here. Thought £25 for breakfast was ridiculous considering I only had a coffee and scrambled eggs on both days and I asked for a child’s portion as don’t eat much in the morning. I normally book B&B, but must have missed it on Hotels.com this time. Maybe a paid menu for breakfast would tempt me back, but not the way it stands unfortunately.
