Went for Sunday lunch at The Clubhouse restaurant. Lovely setting, food really nice. Lots of staff but service was so so slow, drinks and food took so long to get, took the edge of what could have been a lovely way to spend a Sunday lunch time! If they get the service better top marks

A league of its own. I really enjoy nice hotels, its becoming a bit of a hobby to plan for the additional price of nice hotels into my get-a-way plans. This place was a fantastic discover and I cannot wait to come back! I haven't experienced this level of elegance or luxury in quite a while. It truly has the perfect mixture of modern innovation and convenience with the old style boutique feel. By modern convenience I'm talking spacious well decorated rooms, and TVs in your bathtub. A TV in your bath tub is exactly what you want when staying at a five star hotel, ha ha. My back deck
