Some comunal areas affected by the builders but generally cleanliness was good.
The staff were very friendly, breakfasts and two evening meals were very good. The room fine but in the bathroom I would have liked a shelf or a surface by the handbasin and a grab rail in the shower even though the floor was non slip.
An enjoyable stay and can be recomended.

Fab
Had a great stay. We were there for the reggae fest at another venue that finished at 8pm & by pure change the hunting lodge had a SKA night on. So was great carrying on. Enjoyed it so much. Had a great sleep with comfy bed & fab cooked breakfast £10 each extra but well worth it. The staff were friendly & helpful. Will definitely stay again.

Creaking
Fine but the room creaked a lot. I know it's an old building but even my bed creaked when I turned. They are doing refurbishment so hopefully will improve.

Stayed in the newly refurbished Louis room - it was fab.
I would rate this excellent but Mon-Fri breakfast has now been downgraded to a continental one and it was OK but not the best. Very carb / sugar based ('normal' sliced bread, cereals, fruit). Tea was weak as was the coffee. i would recommend you add in yoghurt, meat, cheese to ensure some can have a protein based start to the day. There is an attractive dining area but we were in the bar... few tweaks could make a lot of difference
