Beautiful hotel, stunning rooms.
The menu was a little limited. The bar menu made selecting a little easier.

Location was great with ample parking space and even (free) EV chargers which was a bonus. The refurbished rooms were super comfortable, far better than some of the more established big hotel chains at similar price point (or higher). Quality of food served at breakfast was excellent.
Just one thing - I was doubly charged on my credit card upon check-out which I noticed a few days later. They did reverse it back but only after multiple follow-ups and sharing the receipt. Tip: keep the receipt with you!

I would have liked soap when having a bath. I couldn’t get to the dispensers without standing up.

The breakfast was amazing with a great choice. We loved the open fires in the restaurant and the service was impeccable. The attention to detail in the rooms and the decor was top class.
There wasn't anything we didn't ;like about our stay and would hope to come again.

Very cosy pub, room was lovely and very clean, staff very helpful.
Breakfast was a little disappointing. No offer of toast, pastries or fruit as you would expect from the price of the stay. Whilst I understand that cleaning needs to be done, the cleaner was still vacuuming when we arrived for breakfast at 9am and continued for at least the next 30 minutes so a not very relaxing breakfast. (She actually vacuumed under my chair when I was sitting at the table).
