Lovely location with good countryside views. We found the waiting staff and one night male receptionist were not very welcoming with a smile 🙁 Daytime female receptionist was jolly and chatty and helpful 😀. The bed maker made the quilt cover too short and didn’t reach our shoulders. Following morning we pulled the excess quilt cover out of the bottom of the bed and had a better warm night sleep. Very good breakfast.

I have just had a lovely stay here. The room was very comfortable and clean. I noticed a previous review saying that the room was cold. I put the heater on and it was warm in 5 minutes. The staff were amazing especially check in at reception, the bar and the lovely lady at the spa. They were all so helpful and attentive. I had a lovely time at the spa. Room service was nice. It was such a relaxing stay. I will stay again.

Lacklustre

Room was spacious but not set up as you would expect for a 4 star. Bed comfortable. Mirrored door came off the runner when I slid it open, husband put it back in place. No kettle, no hairdryer, mismatched cups, 1 packet of biscuits. Bathroom products were lovely. Lounge area had no fire on so not very welcoming and temp was cool. Enjoyed dinner, less so breakfast. Pool and steam room were good.
