"Very Good"

7.0

Only thing to improve would be to have access to proper coffee rather than instant at breakfast. Otherwise a fab breakfast!!

"Beautiful and will return after their refurb."

8.0

Beautiful location and property. Stunning views from our room.

The shower wasn’t great, was very hot for me and also not very powerful, but due to the age of the property I wasn’t expecting a modern shower.

"It was a short break which was OK but would not have liked to stay longer"

5.0

Breakfast was OK. Coco pops in museli container on 1st morning, 2nd morning museli placed o top of coco pops.

We were unaware that the hotel was due to close within the next few weeks for total restoration which was clearly needed. Partner said he felt as if the bath was going to give way when having a shower.
