    One of the things We really like about the place, was the hot tub and the swimming pool . The waitresses in the restaurant, were kind and helpful with the kids meals at the breakfast. The receptionist at night was absolutely great as she resolved the issue with the sofa bed .

    The swimming pool looked a bit run down but the steam room and hot tub was brilliant. The menu for food wasn’t a big selection and they run out of a few items however it all tasted amazing and filled us up. The breakfast was filling and we got a 3 course meal in the evening and it was very tasty. The rooms are a great size and bed very comfortable, definitely recommend.

    I just loved the gardens, had an enchanting feel about them Lovely outdoor swimming pool which we enjoyed despite weather not being great. Woodland walk on the grounds was perfect Sunday morning walk, picking blackberries with my young daughter The property itself has been carefully and lovingly renovated. The whole few days felt like being on a retreat for a few days Didn’t meet owners (covid) but they were very friendly on chat messages

    It's a nice hotel but there are no extras like swimming pool or hot tub. The grounds are nice. It is in the university campus which is a mix of good and bad. There is easy parking. The staff are helpful and nice.
