A most wonderful hotel from the cleanliness of all areas to the decor . Food was delicious and staff were very friendly and attentive. Soft towels were very welcome as was the very comfortable bed.

Staff are fantastic, food is good, room is comfortable. Only recommendation is to have a proper mini fridge in the room would be so much nicer than the cooler box/fridge thing they have. And also aircon wld be nicer than a noisy fan. Otherwise it’s a fantastic venue

Impressive hotel. Check-in was easy and staff at reception very helpful. Bar food was excellent for lunch, very tasty. Evening meal in Blake’s Restaurant was nice but nothing special. Had an after dinner Calypso Coffee and it was served in an ordinary coffee mug which was odd. Lovely walking amenities around the grounds. Rooms really nice with lovely views and very clean.
