"The property is beautiful and well maintained. The staff were extremely helpful. Dining in all three restaurants was superb. We would definitely go back. The Falconry experience was amazing. Just be aware it is not run by the hotel but it is on or adjacent to the grounds. A two minute walk from the lobby."
"Close to the airport, big room that was clean. Annoying it was miles away from the lift and was an accessible room as I was worried my autistic son would pull the safety cord. No glasses for water or even a biscuit with the tea. Although I didn’t have a tea but who doesn’t love a free biscuit. Breakfast was fine and coffee was ok. Also tv wasn’t linked to the internet. Probably won’t stay here again but it was fine for what it was."
