Lovely spacious room in the cottage. Everything was catered for. Options for breakfast and dinner. We had a lovely sitting outside area which was handy on one of the hottest days. We parked in the long stay car park but then the lady on reception informed us that after 5pm the street was quieter and we managed to park our car nearby.

The staff were very friendly. We arrived by bike and they were helpful with storing those. The rooms comfortable and clean. The only complaint was the food which was bland in flavour and not up to the standard of the rest of the place

Excellent service and food but disturbed sleep

Excellent service and dinner. Stay spoiled by excessive room noise from external doors and commerical bin banging in the hotel yard outside our room, and from what we think was the kitchen extractor fan running loudly through the night. I wouldn't recommend a room at the rear of the hotel.
