Our room was completely private and wasn’t overlooked by anybody else. The bed was huge and so comfortable, and the staff even left rose petals in the shape of a heart on the bed which was lovely! (we had just gotten married). The bathroom was gorgeous, the shower was massive and the little products for us to use was a nice touch. In the room there were also handmade cookies for us and fresh water. The coffee machine was definitely a bonus too! The best thing about the room was our view. At the foot of the bed large doors opened out to a balcony which looked over fields. It was so serene and peaceful. Overall, it was absolutely beautiful and I’d happily stay here again.

The price of the room was quite expensive, but that’s just my opinion!

Very stylish, sleek, clean and lots of space outside no matter the weather! The bed was incredibly comfortable with the loveliest, dreamiest, bedding. The room was absolutely beautiful and all staff were incredibly lovely. I was quite overwhelmed before arriving but left feeling completely refreshed just after two night stay. The wifi was perfect for working from the hotel too! Including outside - I was able to spend the whole day facilitating video call meetings and collaboration workshops with no issues at all!

At the moment, there is work going on which wasn’t mentioned when booking so was a bit disappointing to have scaffolding outside my room. However, it wasn’t a problem at all, just initially something I would have wanted to know - they have worked around the construction works very well and it’s still a gorgeous and quiet stay especially for the evenings.

Well equipped luxurious rooms and the restaurant and surroundings were well spaced out inside and had an outdoor terraced to sit out as well

There is building works going on at the moment it didn’t affect us too much as we stayed on a weekend when there is no work going on. But the car park is the other side of the building works which can be a problem with people with mobility issues.

On booking it did not tell you about on going building work , so when it showed up on booking I was appreciative, but and a very big but , this was by far one of the most beautiful stays I have had it was spotless, the staff were very attentive, the restaurant was better than any upmarket restaurant I have been to , all of the food was presented excellently, and tasted even better than it looked, I would highly recommend this hotel and restaurant to anyone wanting something up market .

The only thing I could find fault with was our view from our room , as it had scaffolding outside our window , but that was it , once all buildings works are finished this will be so beautiful , thank you for a wonderful stay

Full English breakfast poor because the bacon/sausages were not hot enough. The hottest thing was the egg!! I mentioned this to the waitress twice and despite there being only 4 customers and the chefs visible through the glass there was no apology.

The breakfast on the first day (comments above). The room was not large enough and the view was of scaffolding. There should have been a free upgrade - there were only 5 rooms occupied on both nights. The lounge was scruffy upstairs by the bar.

The hotel was brilliant and we couldn't fault it. The room was clean and well presented and had lovely finishing touches (including a proper hairdryer and not one attached to the wall in the bathroom!). The restaurant and bar were great as well as the grounds and we sat outside for ages just taking it all in. The staff could not have been more helpful - this was the case for everyone we spoke to leading up to and during the stay. Would 100% recommend and will definitely be going back

Cleanliness, comfort of bed. Polite staff.

Newspaper to be charged at £4 for delivery to your room on top of price for paper! Breakfast not included. £20 per hour for late check out or early check in. That's fine if rooms were cheaper but at £159 for cheapest room you expect at least a newspaper and breakfast.

Breakfast was lovely along with produce but far too much bacon on the plate.

My main meal was halibut. The fish and the potatoes were lovely but thought the avocado mush in the middle didn't go. Dessert was very nice of panacott and ruburb. Wine was excellent too.

The breakfast was excellent. The food was superb, fresh and locally sourced, and the views from the Terrace were good. The room was clean and spacious.

The car park is a bit of a trek with bags, although it seems to be getting renovated, building work in progress. Not a deal breaker, though.
