First impressions were a tired looking building, awful net curtains on the windows, overgrown and untidy garden boxes, the glass roof over outdoor reception area is dirty and needs a good clean. Those impressions alone would question why anyone would want a wedding there? Then walking into reception we enquired about having a coffee, something we had had in the past. We were bluntly told no coffee available, try the cafe next door. Hardly a warm welcome and quite disappointing. The GA could do with major updating. I get there's been a lot of changes regarding Covid but surely they should be encouraging

Arrived at hotel and the place looked closed, entrance doors opened to let you into the foyer but could not get into the reception area, after bumping into another guest arriving in the car park he explained our keys where in an envelope near the lift, so hotel dining and reception area is closed but access to rooms is fine, rooms where very nice.

Very strange experience. The whole hotel was closed, didnt see anyone else there. Normally the food is very good, but the restaurant was also closed.

Extremely clean, tidy decoration, staff a credit to the owners and food/portions very good. Bedroom exceptionally clean and comfortable
Staff all very welcoming
Spa session was great. Only suggestion would be to make a 'divider' between the bar and reception area
Would definitely stay here again

Excellent service with very friendly atmosphere and helpful staff. Stayed overnight after attending a wedding, room was very clean and the bed so comfortable we didn't want to get up, breakfast was brilliant. Would recommend as a wedding venue as this was the third we have been to at this Hotel, I think that speaks for itself.
