Found the room very comfortable, spacious and clean. The staff were very polite and professional. Breakfast was great and a member of staff took the time to walk us in to the tables and explain where everything was. Would definitely stay there again.
Really nice stay here. Clean and spacious rooms. Very good amenities but the thing that really made the stay was how lovely all the staff were. We would definitely stay here again!
Being able to use the SPA after a long journey. Having a water milk & biscuits station in the corridor is an excellent idea . Bed very comfortable. Amenities in bathroom very nice.
Hotel staff were really nice.
Property was dated in terms of bathroom facilities and furniture. Could do with a refresh. That said, it was functionally good.

Breakfast was amazing so fresh , hot tub was prefect temperature
Absolutely wonderful stay for our wedding anniversary. A truly lovely hotel with excellent staff who are helpful, happy and welcoming.
Spa is a real bonus. Nothing fancy but lots on offer albeit small in size.
Room was incredible. We were in a junior suite and felt at home. Cleaning staff could do with moving cushions/ furniture to ensure it’s fully cleaned as we did find some leftover items by accident.
Look forward to returning again.
Lovely staff, nice spa but pool a little cold, children got their own spa robes and slippers which was a lovely touch. Also recieved milk, juice and cookies for the children too in the room which they loved. Overall a lovely stay.
The room was large and clean. It did smell rather musty though. We’ve been to this hotel a few times and it’s not as good as it used to be. Probably much like some other hotels who have had to reduce standards, staff etc. Reception staff were very pleasant and efficient. Bar staff were the same. Service at dinner in the restaurant wasn’t quite as good.
Customer service was brilliant. Excellent food, drink and spa. Definitely coming back!

The Staff were lovely. We were upgraded which was nice. We didn't use the facilities due to lack of time but it looked good.
The rooms were a little dated and needed some TLC. The shower was very good. It is a drive or taxi ride into town as the pavements are not suitable for walking.
The Breakfast provided choice and it was good. Again the staff were excellent which made it taste better.
Always a great place to stay, great staff and a fabulous breakfast

Spotless clean room very polite staff drinks not over priced
Only fault is the doors to rooms get slammed shut very loud not the hotels problem tho guest need to be a little bit more careful and think of others
This is a nice hotel with friendly and welcoming staff, and the spa and pool facilities are both very good. The hotel has a relaxed atmosphere, the food was enjoyable. The communal areas are well presented, and overall it is a comfortable place to stay.
However, on this visit my room was not as nice as on previous stays, and the bathroom was looking a little tired in places. I also noticed a sweet wrapper on the floor at the bottom of the stairs on my first day, which was still there when I left two days later.
Overall, still a pleasant stay and I would return, but attention to housekeeping and maintenance could be improved.
