Nice hotel in the woods

Nice hotel, excellent service, bar with pool table which was nice in the evening while sipping our glass of port. Only thing that we didn't really like was the private pool. Guess it hadn't been used in a while because it was filthy. Other than that everything was good.

Disappointed

Food was very poor quality at the hotel and little selection available. Our dinner was badly seasoned, the onion on the cod fish was extremely burnt. The deserts are clearly not home made and purely industrial. We order a wine bottle and not only the waiter brought the bottle opened, we are unclear if the wine we ordered was the wine served. Regarding the parking lot, there’s a chimney fuming all night, my car was covered in ashes in the morning. I’m not coming back to this hotel, and it’s such a shame because the location is beautiful.
