Only issues were that i booked via third party which included breakfast but the staff didnt know that though they honoured it when i explained; the room though a double was really small with little privacy in using the bathroom and no bath which the photos had indicated; there really ought to be nets or blinds on the windows as they overlook the carpark, and the sheets kept coming off the mattress! Otherwise all great!! Would stay again but book directly and ensure a bigger room and a bath. :)

A place to come back to

Stayed before. Easy check in. Room very nice. Ate in restaurant first night. Very good meal however service was a little slow. Near to where we wanted to visit so will use again. Pleasent location in centre of nice village by the pond. There is an outdoor seating area but we didn't use it during our stay.

Lovely place but room had drainage smell

The hotel and restaurant are both really nice, as are the modern rooms. We had a standard double room on a Saturday night which was very reasonably priced at £70 (room only)..but the meals for both dinner and breakfast were not only really great but also very reasonably priced. The only snag was that our room had a very smelly bathroom (drains) which at times was over powering. I hope they get that sorted.
