"The building is impressive, our room was large and clean. There were nice touches such as slippers, bath robes and toiletries. The lounge areas were deserted on the first day of our stay , giving the whole place the ambiance of a museum. The following day saw an influx of guests and the life of the place lifted considerably. There are cards and board games available but you needed to ask as nothing is offered. Breakfast was confusing, there was a standard and uninspiring continental breakfast but we were not told that there were hot food options on request. The opening times for the restaurants are rather limited with only the distillery restaurant available during our stay. The food at the restaurant was good but the menu was the same for lunch as well as dinner. We had been looking forward to walking around the garden which looks impressive in the hotel details. Unfortunately the garden and the tennis courts were, as a earlier review mentioned , rather tired and unmaintained. We cut our stay short."
"Great value hotel. Excellent staff where nothing is too much trouble. Room functional and comfortable. Great grounds. Only issue we had was evening meal did not come up to scratch. Excellent breakfast."
"Lovely setting. Room was small but adequate. No walk in shower just a bath tub with a shower over. Rather antiquated and has seen better days.
Evening meal was very pleasant and staff friendly. Breakfast left a lot to be desired. Scrambled egg was all gone bar a scraping around the edge. Not a great amount of choice for the price.
If you have mobility issues I’d seriously reconsider staying here. Stairs are rather hard to navigate"
"Breakfast was really nice with everything fresh and even bacon and scrambled egg.
Staff were really nice and friendly, complimenting my wife on her French whilst also being good wirh English"
"The hotel overall was very good, and the staff were extremely kind, helpful, and professional. The breakfast was also excellent with a good variety of options.
However, the carpet in the room had a very strong smell of dampness and mould, and it felt quite dirty because of the humidity. This was the only negative point during our stay.
Apart from that, everything else was very good."
"Delightful stay with kind and attentive staff in an historic building. Only whinge (also mentioned elsewhere) is the automatic light that comes on in the night (as you tiptoe to the bathroom) and wakes your partner"
