"The grounds are stunning as you approach the hotel. Lots of parking which is always a plus. Reception staff were very welcoming. Unfortunately I booked this hotel to enjoy the spa facilities. I booked the day of the stay. When booking in, there were notices to advise the spa facilities were out of service. Extremely disappointed. If I had known this prior or been notified I would have changed my plans. The room it self was very nice, bed was comfortable."

"Loved the hotel and convenience. Our room was on the top floor which we were grateful for, however unless the aircon was switched on the draft whistled through the door quite significantly and constantly!! Something to note if you have the same issue, just stick the aircon on and it stops! We were offered a takeaway breakfast as we were checking out before 4am. The bar and restaurant were good, just very very noisy. Overall a brilliant stay! Thank you!"
