Staying in The Deluxe room...
Liked: BreakfastLunchViewsLocated in a beautiful setting and great for dog walksThe Deluxe roomSpaShooting ground
Disliked: 1) Booked the shooting for my husband's birthday 23rd at 12pm. Arrived on time and told at reception it was the next day at 10am. She blamed me for getting it wrong and didn't apologise. 2) Our room was a Classic when I thought I had booked a Deluxe. It cost £196 for the Saturday night and it was disgusting. Dated, dirty, old fashioned and in need of renovation. The door rattled and we had to wedge something under the door to stop it making a noise. No Netflix. I wouldn't have paid £100 for it if I had known. Thought because of the cost I was getting the Deluxe room. So upsetting especially with it being a special occasion. Spoke to Mel on reception and she said that she could book me in to the Deluxe for the 2nd night for an extra £25. Brilliant!! It was really lovely and made the weekend.3) Inconsistent customer service. There are people that work here that are lovely and go that extra mile and there are people working that don't want to be here. A couple of them were actually rude. 4) Evening meal at The View. Neither of us enjoyed our food and it wasn't cheap. Booked in at The Fleece for the Sunday evening and it was brilliant, great food, great customer service and much cheaper than the hotel.5) Not being given the correct information upon booking. So we booked in for the spa and paid extra for our dog to stay. At no point were we told that we couldn't leave our dog in his crate alone whilst we both went to the spa. He would have slept the whole 2 hours because he is well exercised. So I cancelled my Spa appointment and my husband had to go on his own (it was one of his birthday treats).

Clean, comfortable, and relaxing.
Liked: Beautiful landscape, clean and comfy room. Food was lovely and perfect portion sizes, drinks lovely too. Staff were very helpful and accomodating, spa facilities were great, and worth the extra money. Will definitely return in the near future. Overall a lovely weekend and the staff went out the way to help celebrate my partners birthday.
Disliked: Slightly limited menu but wasn’t an issue for us, I can imagine there being a lack of seating especially in the summer months, as bar, lounge and restaurant were relatively crowded in the evening. Overall no major issues and a lovely stay, as stated will 1000% be returning soon!

Very good hotel
Liked: Great hotel for my location, Breakfast superb, evening meal slighly expensive but was very good quality.However you can have the bar menu in the restaurant which was excellent and View from the main resteraunt in the am is wonderful.Club sandwich in Bar is huge, great quality and value however bar a little on the small side could be slighly larger but again can use the main resteraunt which has a great feature fire in the centre.Great staff especially the Manager at Breakfast who was superb
Disliked: As explained above the hotel is in a great location, wonderful views, great staff, clean, warm, free slippers and robes in room also a robe that fits me a rarity even in the Marriott, CP or HI.
