Reviews and Ratings
The hotel had convenient access for guests with mobility issues and was warm, but the size was too small and shared spaces felt cramped. The powdered eggs were a letdown for a modern hotel.
I had a great stay at this hotel! The garden rooms were spacious and spotless, although the temperature was initially too high. The service was fantastic, with accommodating staff who were always polite and friendly. The location was perfect, offering a peaceful setting close to the motorway without any noise. The dining experience was enjoyable, with delicious food in a pleasant atmosphere.
The hotel offers a comfortable and warm room with the option to have a window open all night. The service was impressive, with attentive staff despite being overworked. The location is secluded with an amazing vista across fields. The dining experience was excellent, although an additional cost. Overall, a pleasant stay with some minor drawbacks.
