The room was spotless and the staff were very pleasant and helpful. The staff on reception were particularly helpful. We were disappointed that the evening meal menu was a fixed price 4 course meal, with no a la carte options. The food was lovely but we really didn’t want a four course meal.

My Mum and Dad have had an absolute amazing time.. Everything was completely wonderful! Myself and my siblings booked my Mum and Dad in for their special anniversary, and they couldn't fault a thing. They sincerely loved every single moment. My Mum said they will definitely be returning.. The staff can't do enough to help,so friendly and helpful,every single member. The room was simply beautiful,the food was outstanding. We are all so happy that you have all contributed to make this so very special. Thank You to you all..

The only thing I didn’t agree with was there was only a four course meal on offer on a night time at £40 pp if you only wanted 2 courses it was still £40pp which I think is totally wrong.
