We loved the grounds, being able to walk in the woods with the dog. The fact that dogs are made to feel very welcome is also a bonus.

It was all very nice but the staff could be a little more friendly and also not have to ask and wait for the basic extras like sauce and toast.
When we asked for 2 x rooms to celebrate 2 x anniversary’s, it’s best not to give one overlooking the rear garden and fields with a view and the other facing a car park. Both rooms could have been with the same view especially as they were upgraded rooms..! Also, I found the staff ok once you said hello to them first but they didn’t seem overly warm to me which is a shame.

Every thing was perfect, hot shower, comfy room
The mattress could be harder. We rented a car to get there, otherwise I guess it’s a long walk after using the public transportation
