Liked: Excellent locationBreakfast was goodPublic rooms were fine and comfortable.
Disliked: Room was averageHave to mix with wedding guests.⁰

Very disappointing considering it cost...

Liked: Nice setting Lovely grounds
Disliked: Hardly slept because it was so noisy due to our room being above the kitchen extractor vents. They were on all night.The dressing table stool had 3 broken legs and would have been dangerous to sit on.There was no grab rail for getting in and out of the bath and the water kept switching from scalding hot to freezing cold. This was extremely dangerous due to how hot the water temperature was. The breakfast portions were extremely small especially since it cost £19.50 per person.

Liked: Easy check in, nice spacious third floor room with large bathroom. Friendly welcoming staff. Fine dining in The Orangery with both an excellent dinner and decent breakfast.
Disliked: High bedroom window looking onto roof parapet with treeline beyond. Lots of debris (not just leaves and moss) on roof. Looked like it had not been swept for years. Bath plug didn’t work properly so water was draining as I tried to have a bath.

Excellent - wonderful location and...

Nice hotel but overpriced

Liked: I arrived at 1240hrs as I was attending a wedding at 1400hrs, so we requested an early check which we were charged £40 for 1 hour 20 minutes, this seems very excessive a bit like the bar prices very expensive. I also lost a lapel badge in the wedding function room, I did ask staff but nobody was very helpful to try an locate this or even if it had been handed in.
