The hotel was lovely, the spa was clean and delightful, the food was excellent and all round it was a very pleasant stay. Unfortunately, the hotel was quiet due to the snow, but otherwise everything was fine.

We enjoyed our two night stay, nice big hotel, friendly staff, ample parking, brilliant shower and lovely views! The food isn’t brilliant just average pub food and the drinks are quite expensive for the area! Parts of the hotel are looking a bit tired now and in need of a refurbishment!

Pleasant break
A pleasant two-night break. Hotel is good and reasonably priced though you'll struggle for things to do nearby if you don't have a car. Nice room, comfy bed and the restaurant is good too

1980s museum
Not normally a fan of giving bad reviews but as the hotel staff didn't care to ask.... This hotel has to be the most dates old fashioned hotel I have ever stayed in. I would predict the rooms where last updated in the 1980s at the same time the mattress was replaced, it had 0 support. The bathroom very similarly had no luxury / comfort or nice features. We stayed in an Exec room, I have no idea what was executive in that room. certainly not the 15 year old tv. Breakfast wasnt great either. We went for the cooked option that consisted of microwaved scrambled eggs. undercooked black pudding 3 rashers of bacon stuck to each other and some beans. (beans where good) I think it is a clear indication of a hotel on check out when you aren't asked how was your stay or how was your room as they know full well at £190 per night it was appalling. Give this hotel a miss

Lovely hotel but staffing could be better
Nice hotel with a lovely pool, good breakfast etc. Unfortunately the staff let it down. Reception staff very unhelpful to me and other guests that were in front of me. Not enough staff at breakfast.

Had a lovely stay, sadly only for one night. The spa facilities were nice but quite a few children made it a less relaxing experience than expected. Still waiting on a reply to a lost property query
