Charming and unique historic hotel. Its an older hotel that’s beautifully furnished. Lots of windows, comfy chairs, a nice bar and dining room. It’s right off a main road and close to the Airport, so it’s very accessible.

We loved our visit! We stayed for one night with our dog, and felt welcome and taken care of. As we visited in July, the hotel was in the warmer side, but thankfully the windows in the bedroom opened and there was a small fan provided that we made use of. Dinner and breakfast was excellent. Because we had our dog with us, we were sat in the club room, but we were very happy with the service we received here, and were very comfortable at our private table overlooking the estate. The leisure facilities were very clean and had everything you need for a workout, swim, or sauna. Overall, very happy with our stay and would happily return! Only regret is not having stayed an extra night!

Liked: Amenities
Rooms are clean and very well appointed. Mixed bag of staff, ranging from keen, knowledgeable and helpful to disengaged. Breakfast at best was just OK, nothing outstanding or memorable, with a very limited range of breads. Bar person Laughlin was excellent, but poor stocks of both mixers, wine and liquors left him struggling to satisfy basic requests. Evening meal was consumed in the bar area, which was fine, food was very good and a great range on the menu. Mixed feelings on the quality of stay, so giving a 3 from 5.

The only reason i gave this hotel four stars is that i had to go for the cheapest room. Had only one Tiny window and that doesn't help if you need light for work. I'm sure more expensive rooms were great, I just didn't had a chance to experience it. Restaurant was outstanding. And staff ... beypnd expectations. They will go not only an extra mile for you, but ten miles. I felt welcomed and important.
