    Nothing to dislike at all. If you don't like this place you are very hard to please.

    The staff were all very friendly and accommodating, Obviously the selection process is very good. The food was excellent, we had both breakfast and an evening meal. A little pricier than we would normally choose, because it is more high end, but not so much so that you didn't feel comfortable (we had a suite). Very homely and pleasant. No road noise because it's secluded. I would recommend this place to anyone looking for a relaxing and special break, We also looked at the wedding and conferencing facilities because we're nosey, and they look absolutely spot on.

    A few surprise pot holes in the drive and some unresponsive sash windows were the only minor issues.

    The food was outstanding and the "a la carte" menu gave a good choice, balancing quality and quantity. Breakfast was also a joy, well cooked and produced to order. The bed was "so good" my wife has insisted we have to buy a new mattress.

    Due to our booked junior suite, we were offered the bridal suite as an upgrade. Unfortunately, the water went cold after one shower, a light was flickering and some of the mastic in the bathroom needed replacing.

    Location and the service team.

    Please consider more hooks and shelves: - We had nowhere to put our wet coats (we didn’t fancy hanging them in the cupboard among our other clothes). It would have been nice to have somewhere to hang things in the entrance area. - Also, a mat to put shoes in the entrance area? Again, there was a lot of rain and muddy conditions, I’m sure this would save your carpet! - There was nowhere to put our toiletries, despite having a large bathroom. A shelf or small table would have been useful.

    The suite was lovely and quiet, with a nice view of the garden from the living area and a comfortable king bed. The cooked breakfast was delicious and the staff attended us very quickly. All staff members were friendly and welcoming.

    £29 steak: mushroom covered in oil. Not worth the price. The lock to the Lodge is fiddly. Maybe put a sign up to instruct turning the key halfway. Better still, use automated key cards. The same for the rooms. Fiddly keys, with clunky, soft wooden do not disturb signs. The combination is cumbersome, if you're coming and going throughout the day and want to leave sign on door.

    I was ill and the staff were very considerate, kind and helpful. Carlo, the General Manager, is very hands on; treats his staff and guests well. Shout out to Chris, night porter, for accommodating me. Absolutely beautiful, value for money Ham n cheese baguettes with chips, from day time menu.

    I’m not sure if it was just me but the bed didn’t seem as comfortable as it looked.

    A very nice hotel with great staff, great food and a super bedroom. I was thrilled it had a roll top bath.

    The car park potholes could do with a bit of attention.

    We thought the hotel building and the lodge were both lovely. So was the garden, despite the time of year.

    The room was set up for single instead ofa couple, I had to go on a search for extra cups and glasses, no staff around, so I helped myself from the bar. The breakfast I was really looking forward too but it came out cold if we were not sat in a group of people I would of said, I hardly touched it yet when plates were cleared the staff did not ask if everything was OK.

    It was very clean, comfortable, and staff friendly. The bathroom was beautiful. The bed was amazing.
