We have stayed here several times now and highly recommend it to others. We stayed in the Country House rooms and enjoyed the wonderful views and comfort. Breakfast was outstanding. We booked dinner and that was very good too. A lovely stay.

8.0

Overall the stay was as expected. We used to stay at this hotel a few years ago. So, we woul visit again. Breakfast need some improvment as on our table we always had opend jam jars and never filled up in a proper way.

− For every item they served they asked a service fee of over 4 pounds, so that made the stay even more expensive. For example, ordering at the bar two drink plus twice the service fee. Ordering food at the bar, aswell twice the service fee. Actually, we used to give a tip to every person but after finding out of this serving fee we stopped tipping.
