Was lovely location, my 2 year old had plenty of space in the room to run around. The Country Park was lovely. We all enjoyed feeding the deer. We were charged for food that we didn't have, it was sorted once the mistake was made, but means someone was possibly under charged (lucky them) When we were in the restaurant it wasn't busy at all we were the only ones in there to start with for about half hour so baffles me how the mistake was made.

Its location was superb. The staff were all freindly but at the same time proffessional. The food was excellent and thourghly enjoyed. The room was very clean and comfortable. We truley enjoyed our stay with you and will be using your hotel un the future and will pass our experience on to other friends and family. Thank you. All be it this is a minor hitch my only down point would be the reception on the television in our room.
