The room itself was adequate but the tea milk and sugar was poor only having two tea bags Four sugar lumps and no milk. There wasn’t a spare toilet roll and the first one wasn’t a full one. We were there for two nights and we had to ask for replenishments. The staff we encountered were very friendly and willing to help

Staff were faultless 10 out of 10. Both dinner & breakfast presented well however warm not hot. Under rim of sink needed cleaning dust sitting ontop of lid on toilet brush & not sure floor had been cleaned before we arrived as ball of dust under chair & marks/dark hair on bathroom floor. A little more attention to detail required (Fox room).

Had a lovely 1 night business stay. Bedroom (20) was lovely and felt really cosy, the restaurant was very nice and they were helpful with gluten free options. EV charger was really handy. The only small niggle was being woken at 6.45am with the bottle bins being emptied right next to my room Would definitely visit again

Really disappointed. The reception desk is not manned and it took a long wait before check in and check out. I booked a suite but was given a small room in the loft. The window had been left wide open so it was bitterly cold on arrival. There is no water or milk for coffee in the room. One of the windows had no blind or curtain. The bathroom is very small with the sloping roof it is impossible to use the toilet stood up. There is no mirror at the sink but on the other side of the room. There is no room service so I was told to order at the bar and then carry it up to my room. I did this and the dessert was brought to me 10 minutes before my main. A catalogue of problems which I have not experienced at this hotel before.

Lovely dog friendly stay - staff were all super helpful, friendly and accommodating and the whole place was beautifully and thoughtfully decorated. Delicious food, both dinner and breakfast, great selection and all arrived piping hot, well presented and 'just right' in terms of timing between ordering and delivery. A couple of constructive points / minor areas for improvement - the pillows were exceptionally firm, the pathway to our room would benefit from additional low level lighting (particularly around the step area) and it would be nice if there was a small area of grass on site to allow 'resident dogs' to relieve themselves. All in all though this did not detract from what was a lovely overnight break :)
