professional staffclean roomcomfortable beddry beefawful puddingsunday dinner
The staff was very professional and cute. Our room was clean, and the bed was comfortable! Fluffy towels and robes were provided, along with a nice tea and coffee selection.
The beef tasted like dry braised blocks at Sunday dinner. The Yorkshire puddings also were not good. They tasted awful and stodgy. It is a shame because they used to be great.

The building is fabulous with beautiful decor. our room included dressing gowns and even a flask of iced water. The attention to detail was clear. I felt so cared for. the staff were amazing and made sure we wanted for nothing
we found that arranging an evening meal on arrival was difficult. this was a challenge though we quickly found an alternative at a local shop.
