Upkeep is starting to slip. Missing grout in the shower, minimal towels, breakfast was disorganized. Only places that the staff recommended to eat were Indian food. When I inquired about other options for dining they gave me a blank look.

The room was dirty and tired with damages throughout. The only reason this rating isn't 1 star is due to the sheets and towels being clean.

The room and bed were lovely, unfortunately the shower wasn't properly attached to the wall but once reported it was quickly fixed. We didn't have the breakfast as we felt that it was a bit pricey.

We booked two rooms, one in the lodge at the back which was lovely. The second room was no. 14 on the top floor. It was very cold and had no way to get it warm. Thankfully we didn't spend too much time in there as it was only one night stay. Longer would have been an issue. Staff were nice, breakfast was very good.
