We were in the outdoor cabin number 2 and there was no hot water. The duty manager came and tried his best to get into the boiler cupboard but the lock was on the wrong way. At this point we were told to see the GM at 7am as there was nothing else he could do and no other rooms

nice garden set up for weddings. The room was terrible see pictures, walls in poor state, no bedside tables, one useable socket, television high and on wrong wall only watch if lying on side in bed, shower dirty, paintwork peeling, toilet seat loose. Room incredibly hot (there before heatwave started) reported to reception and they refused to do anything about it. So bad we checked out early to find a decent hotel despite have prepaid for longer. The breakfasts in restaurant were poor quality. would not recommend staying in this hotel.

It was a really nice stay. The cabin we stayed in was quiet and very spacious. The only issue was breakfast was a bit chaotic, the toaster packed up and the coffee machine did not work. That said, the staff did everything to accommodate us. Overall, a really great stay and would certainly stay again when in the area.

One night stay

Nice room with everything in and nice not to have to worry about taking shower gels as all provided but disturbed by noise as walls thin as was on top floor. Reported maintenance needed as toilet flusher broken and shower door not on runners. Tea and coffee provided is a good brand and plenty to choose from with variety given Food to a high standard and large portions Staff lovely and couldn’t do enough to help and assist. Clearly work very hard to make everyone’s stay enjoyable Will return but would ask for a room on lower floors
