empty dispensers expired cereal
The arrival lacked warmth. i had to find light switches in the dining area. It felt unwelcoming. soap dispensers were empty in the shower, i found no soap at all. breakfast disappointed, sliced cheese, poor ham, expired cereal, a single jam portion, a raw croissant and thankfully some berries. no cooked breakfast was available either.

i had a good 2-night stay. ziz arranged my chatsworth ticket for me. the breakfast was very nice, and the owner is a very lovely lady who poured her whole heart into the place. i ate lovely home made jam.
i think that the walk back uphill to the hotel from the town centre might be a bit challenging for some.
