"Great location and lovely hotel. I did see there was a pillow menu but it would be nice to have good pillows on the bed without having to ask for them. The ones we had were foam and quite hard. We had dinner in the Wine Press restaurant which was very good but only realised there was an alternative menu when a member of our party asked about the different meal they'd seen another table receiving. We had been given the set menu with no option for any other. Guests should be offered both menus to chose from Other than that the hotel was lovely, the staff helpful and we enjoyed our stay"

"I rang to ask if I could collect my key a couple of hours before check in, which the very friendly Helen assured me I could. When I arrived not only was I able to actually check in at the earlier time, I’d also been upgraded to a lovely quiet double room . Staff couldn’t have been nicer. I was also told I could leave my car in the parking for the day. I only wish they had had room for another night, but they were full. Would definitely stay here again"

"Stayed in a family room with my two young children which was very spacious with 2 single beds and a king. The room was very clean but unfortunately a previous guest had been smoking in the bathroom and the smell was disgusting and leaving the fan on did not help. Other than that the food was lovely, the staff couldn't do enough for you, the swimming pool was great and even though this is essentially aimed at adults, my children were made to feel very welcome."
