It was pet friendly with lovely dogs who were all well controlled. However, the main purpose of a hotel it to sleep and the room was so poorly sound insulated that we were hardly able to sleep the first night due to the "buzz saw" snoring in the room next door. The next night different visitors were still clearly audible through the walls snoring but it was not as bad - so even normal snoring is clearly audible through the walls. The cozy room was indeed "cozy", but the old metal framed bed was very creaky, so easy to disturb your partner.

Friendly welcoming hotel

Unknown to me it has become a hotel to take dogs to. Dogs barking, corridor smelt of dogs. At breakfast up to 12 dogs in the restaurant. Even one owner feeding biscuits to a dog in the restaurant. Dogs allowed long lead in restaurant which I nearly tripped over. Not for anyone who does not have a dog.

The staff were very friendly. The bedroom decoration needed updating, we found the mattress uncomfortable. The walls were very thin, we could hear snoring from either side of us, plus talking etc. It would have been nice to have some fresh fruit available for breakfast.

Great location but room for improvment

The location was very good and convenient for a local family wedding. The restaurant food was excellent and the staff very friendly. Our bathroom net/curtain had a considerable amount of mold but in general the room was clean, if a little dated. The breakfast service on our last day was very poor with a very long wait for food and a lack of resources to handle the amount of guests.

Anniversary break

From the beginning to the end of our stay the staff team were superb. Nothing was too much trouble and every requirement we had was met. We atè in the restaurant 2 evenings and the foid & service was excellent. My steak on both occasions was very tender. The grounds were well maintained and were nice to walk around. The only let down was the pond nearest the hotel that seemed to be overflowing and making the nearby ground a quagmire. We hope to stay again in the future as we both thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Good and bad

The hotel staff are all friendly and welcoming. Food was to a very high standard. Parkland also excellent and ideal for a doggy. The rooms were tired and dated and the walls were paper thin. We spent all night listening to next door snoring and moving around on their bed. We must of only had an hours sleep so not ideal.

A little too dog friendly particularly in the dining area. The dogs were not well behaved with many barking which we found very irritating whilst having dinner. Maybe future customers should be made aware of the situation.

small room

A really nice place, with friendly staff. Good food great breakfasts. However, I was booked for 4 nights and put into a very small room, which would have been acceptable for one night, but very claustrophobic for more than that. As a single traveler, this is not uncommon. I should be used to it, but feel we are treated poorly by the travel industry as a whole. The onsuit however was good.
