    It felt awkward to walk through the bar to reach the stairs to the bedrooms when we arrived with our luggage but we then able to use a side staircase which avoided the bar.

    The location was stunning and the pub/restaurant had a great atmosphere with very good food. Our room was lovely.

    Nothing I didn't like. Maybe if I was picky, the blinds could have been "sealed" a bit more, but still it was great.

    Very comfy and warm rooms, absolutely no objections to that. Good breakfast - made on order, so no lukewarm eggs etc. Haven't tried dinner.

    Lovely clean, tastefully decorated, and welcoming hotel. Excellent food choices, which were well cooked and presented. My room was comfortable and warm with a comfortable bed and lovely decor. The location was peaceful with lovely views across the reed beds and great spot for bird spotting.

    Only let down was the housekeeping staff having an incredibly loud catch up in the corridor outside my room at 7:45am!! Complete disregard for guests spending their hard earned money on a hotel stay. My family group were all awoken by the noise so I imagine other guests were.

    Stunning location and very comfortable rooms.

    Central heating went off too early in the evening and came on too late in the morning making the room cold when both going to bed and getting up (both mornings were frosty outside). There was a portable electric heater in the wardrobe which helped but not an environmentally friendly solution.

    It was very clean and newly refurbished attention to details in the room. Location for our weekend events was excellent and food and drink selection and quality was good.

    Excessive waiting involved, over 30 minute wait from sitting down at table until first drink arrived. very pleasant staff but not organised and attentive to guests. Thought food was quite expensive for what it was. Offered choice of 5 desert options on menu, chose dessert and then informed the two choices we want were not available!!

    Very nice decor, clean and comfortable room. Very generous and tasty breakfast, good value for room and breakfast.
