"We would probably come back"

10.0

Nice high ceilings and traditional style, well appointed and nice little comforts and shortbread in the bedrooms. Lots of yummy warm towels. Staff courteous and helpful.

Our mattress was a bit hard and not comfortable. A walk-in shower would be much safer and more acceptable.

The self service buffet breakfast was out of those world. Simply beautiful, and well presented.

I could never ever fault this prestigious establishment. Or even try to find one.
