Beautiful place, warm and helpful...

Liked: I travelled with my mum, my sister and my dog. We loved every aspect of our stay. On arrival, Molly at reception was incredibly warm, helpful, genuine, and kind. Our room was immaculate, comfortable and had everything we needed. We had a really relaxing stay - the beds were super comfy and the view was outstanding. Breakfast was delicious and the 11am departure gave enough time to enjoy the morning without feeling rushed. We will definitely be back. Loved every minute.
Disliked: Cannot think of anything we didn't like.

Very good

Liked: Cooked breakfasts were very good and room was very comfortable with lovely view. Staff were friendly.
Disliked: Coffee at breakfast (which otherwise was great) was poor (very weak). When coming back late guests should also have a way to get in without having to have made prior arrangements to have front door left unlocked.

Cannot recommend.

Liked: Location nice although you need your own car to get around. 45 min just to get anywhere you are going.
Disliked: Most of the staff hardly spoke English making communication a bit difficult. We ordered cappuccinos at first breakfast which were undrinkable, immediately after we were back in our room there was a knock on our bedroom door demanding £7 in cash for the cappuccinos. Very strange. We had to get cash next time we were out.Someone in very dirty tracksuit bottoms came in to clear breakfast dishes, bent down and flashed a builders bum, not very appetising. We didn't have any further breakfasts at the hotel.

Would not stay again, would...

Liked: The location was great although if you want to explore you definitely need your own transport. Takes 45 min just to get back to main roads.
Disliked: It was very expensive for what you got. The coffee was horrendous, we asked for cappuccinos with breakfast which were undrinkable but we were still asked to pay an extra £3.50 for each (in cash) immediately after breakfast. Someone actually knocked on our bedroom door to ask us to come and pay. Strange! As we enjoy coffee with our breakfast we didn't stay for breakfast on the next two mornings and went somewhere else. Most of the staff we met, at checkin as well, barely spoke English. Some of our questions couldn't be answered. The staff however were friendly.The first morning when we did have breakfast, someone came to clear the table in very dirty tracksuit bottoms and we had the delight of seeing his builders bum. Very off putting and not what I was expecting for £250 per night.

Overall a comfortable stay in...

Liked: The room was very spacious and the bed was large and comfortable.
Disliked: The choice of food on the menu was very limited due to us staying out of season. This was a disappointment because we have stayed there on two previous occasions and a good range of choices was available. In our opinion the food was also overpriced - £110 for a meal for two people with modest drinks. We also found the pillows to be rather uncomfortable.
