Excellent Hotel and Staff.

Everyone was welcoming and were accommodating with requests for meals, drinks and extra requirements in our room. Jaqueline, Harri, Tom, Alan and Sharon provided that extra care and attention to detail. These are the names we remember but please note every member of hotel staff provided good care and customer service skills. We will return.

Charming

A lovely hotel in a lovely location. Very pretty little town. The hotel has maintained all it's features and although we weren't able to sit outside due to the weather, the grounds looked very nice too. Only thing I would change is the bathroom. Felt quite stark and could be made more luxurious and in keeping with the rest of the hotel for minimal cost. Parking very good. Evening meal was lovely and the staff were lovely and very welcoming. Would definitely recommend.
