We stayed Friday to Monday and upgraded to sea view. Room was great with a nice comfy bed and shower was nice too. Clean towels every day even though we didn't ask for them. Tea and coffee making facilities were also nice.

The whole experience was wonderful. The pool, although cold was well used, followed by a dip in the hot tub. The little private pub was a hit, along with the games room. A beautiful venue for special ocasions. Comfortable rooms, lovely grounds and helpful hosts. Altogether amazing.
