Room was small but with a good bathroom, perfectly comfortable. Decor dated but room was clean. Lovely bar area with a variety of seating. Well stocked with friendly staff. You certainly wont be cold, a fire on in the bar and heating on within the rooms and corridors. Perfectly located for the airport and P&J live arena. There is a restaurant on site that we didn't get to try. Menu looked good. Really enjoyed our stay

It was OK! Staff are nice and friendly. Breakfast was poor in cooking and quality, beds are old and uncomfortable with springs digging in to your back when laying on your side. My TV didnt work properly but my colleagues did.

Nice quiet room with the bonus of a hand held shower head in the ensuite (as well as fixed head if that is what you like). Staff were pleasant and helpful. Plenty of parking space. Good breakfast. We attended a private dinner party in the library one evening and we also had an excellent meal in their own restaurant the following evening.
