Lovely staff especially at the bar which was fitted out beautifully and I loved the little history lessons in the bar menu. The doors slam really hard and wake you up so soft closing doors would be a good investment! Nice hotel and really yummy breakfast

Fantastic hotel, great facilities pity about event planning, not well organised, poor communication, staff and kitchen were at logger heads and were unable to deliver the menu agreed. Service was terrible or excellent depending on who was in charge on the day.
