Nice hotel and the bar downstairs served nice food. The rooms however were very hot, we were provided with a fan and had the windows open but it didnt help much. We booked a room with a lake view and it is not much of a lake view more a car park view.

The manager Richard was the only good thing about the hotel apart from the view!!! The bathroom was tiny and the door was hitting the toilet and very limited space in the bathroom. The bath was dirty full of hair when we complained we was offered a free drink My sisters room there was poo on the toilet seat !!! We had to clean our own room When we ordered food we was told 30-40 min wait this turned out to be a hour !! When food turned up my sisters was missing and waited 10 mins incase it was just late or couldn’t carry it but when we spoke they said it will be out when it’s out and he was very rude… when we said we’ve already been waiting he huffed and said they burnt it so had to remake it… then the pizza came out burnt round the outside and raw in the middle…. I found a slug type looking thing in my burger… the chips was greasy … the only nice member of staff was the manager the rest very rude unhelpful the girl slammed the plate down

Beautiful property and the restaurant and food was delicious! Staff friendly and check in easy Our double room was cute with a little sofa area and table and chairs next to a cute little window overlooking the rear car park but … with a view to the lake I love old properties like this and it was decorated lovely too The negatives .. No towels in room so had to get these ourselves Weird ‘old peoples home’ smell around as a whole but sheets smelled this way too It was very clean just this odd smell around Parking very limited but you can find local parking for under £10 for 24 hours Overall good stay, happy with room and would stay again But do prefer another hotel nearby if I had a choice
