Breakfast was superb. We only stayed one night. The deluxe room needs to be updated. Crack in sink, floor unstable in shower, noisy and vibrating washing machine from 7am from above. The staff were superb. The restaurant and bar area looked superb and if we visited again we would definitely go for a meal.

Lovely.

The room was fine however there was a synthetic air freshener smell I hated. I think it was placed under the bed. If we had stayed longer I’d have asked for it to be removed but we were in and out quickly. The room was good for our requirements. The inn itself looks wonderful. We had a quick drink before we went elsewhere. Wish we had eaten at the Fountain as breakfast was superb - 10/10. Staff were all incredibly nice, happy and chatty.

Staff were fantastic from checking in to servicing the room and our needs. Nothing was any trouble. Restaurant staff were amazing along with all the chefs. Food was amazing cannot fault any meal we had. Nice garden area to sit outside The only thing to mention is outside our hotel room door (room 5 first floor) there must be a generator as every morning from 7am onwards. Along with the sound it also caused vibrations on our door. So if you are a light sleeper bear this in mind. We were there 3 nights and got used to so this did not cause to much bother. Will definitely return

Okay, but definitely not worth the money I paid.

Double bed (queen size bed advertised). No free bottle of water (as advertised). No restaurant from Monday to Wednesday (hotels.com say restaurant available). Walls are paper thin where I could hear the guests conversation in the room next door as well as every time they used the toilet. Definitely not worth the £98 I paid.
