We checked in early and that was fine. Hotel side has been recently renovated. Hotel and continental breakfast are fabulous. The bar/restaurant is shabby and old tho still has a wee bit of charm.

Cool place, great rooms. Unfortunately the front desk clerk was rude and seemed miserable. Seemed like maybe she had had enough of bad customers over the years so now she's taking it out on the good customers.

The hotel is full of charm and character. The front desk staff member was very friendly and welcoming. Our room was spacious, comfortable and quiet. And it was a treat to have a cup of tea by the fire in the library. Wish we were staying longer!

Pleasantly surprised by this place. Large rooms, clean, quiet, strong and stable WiFi and more amenities. The bedding was spotless and very comfortable with lots of pillows to choose from. The front desk staff was very helpful and having a free breakfast was a plus. We will definitely be staying here again. The attached Pub had good food and drinks as well. Thank you for a great experience.

When working and staying at a hotel, a good breakfast is important. Two mornings the breakfast was not ready when they said it would be, 15 and 20 minutes late....which meant I did not eat. Third day the hasbrowns were cold. More care needs to be taken around the breakfast area.
