"Spent a one night girlie break at this hotel. Staff very friendly and helpful, especially the bar staff taking our orders from our seats etc. Surrounding area beautiful for a stroll. Bar food and restaurant food excellent. Rooms very spacious with everything you need. Only criticism, that we all had, was the lighting in the rooms and bathrooms. If you are planning on applying makeup be sure to bring a hand mirror and/or a light. But this won’t ruin anyone’s stay in this lovely hotel I’m sure 🤗"
