"This is the first time we have stayed here and found the Staff to be extremely kind and helpful - on check-in our room was quickly changed to a ground room when they found out my husband had a broken knee! The bedroom was clean and bright with a view over the picturesque grounds. Breakfast was super and again the waiting staff were all very helpful. We would definitely stay here again."

"We have stayed here several times and have always found it far better than its price might suggest. This time we were disappointed that there was no wi-fi in the room, not a problem we have had before. Hotels.com say all rooms have wi-fi with some in public areas but staff told us it is the other way round. Presumably we were just lucky the other times, but this is a big let-down"

"For me it was most definitely the staff. Cheryl & Robert. I arrived and was greeted by them both. As a stranger to the area they settled me into the hotel, which is centrally located in the town. When asking for local taxi numbers Cheryl asked where I was going, once told she offered to take me to my goddaughter wedding venue, above a beyond but greatly appreciate. I dined in the hotel on my first night and the busy bar / lounge meal & atmosphere was fantastic with Robert as our host. Sea bass cooked to perfection. Robert has traveled far and wild and I was able to share my travel stories with him, what a gent. The hotel has old world charm and many stories to tell. A fantastic stay and one I would happily do again."
