Hotel in beautiful setting, great staff.

Our room had over bath shower not like the one we had booked. We asked for a room with a walk in shower as partner had new knee. Receptionist sorted this for us. The second room didn’t smell of dog. Unfortunately the sheets had spots of blood on - told reception on our way to dinner. Sheets were replaced and a discount of £20 was given. Good quality towels but one with a hole in. Bar staff were excellent and food was good.

Booked this hotel for a stop over on way home to Scotland and found a hidden gem. Set in beautiful surroundings adjacent to the canal and lovely beer garden in front of picturesque pond. The buildings and interior decor were beautiful at very reasonable room rates. Very friendly efficient staff and nice food. Couldn’t fault it for anything and will defo return.

A beautiful setting which was even better in the glorious sunshine we had. Had a fantastic suite overlooking the canal. Tastefully decorated and so much space. Nice meal in the bar which had a lovely atmosphere. So nice to walk around the lakes andby the canal.
