Our room was in the cottages adjacent to the newer hotel building and was a good size, well provisioned, comfortable and with a nice sized bathroom. The staff were impeccably trained and all very helpful and friendly. The food was excellent with a wonderful choice at breakfast and there was a nice atmosphere throughout the bar/bistro, lounge and restaurant areas.

It was advertised as dog friendly, however, we couldn't take the dog into the bar area . A bit unfortunate it was a very stormy night so had no other option. The hotel has several public areas a small area for dog owners would be helpful.
The heating system was very flexible which added to our comfort

Shower power variable, probably when others were using theirs. Small bathroom sink but governed by size of bathroom. These two, very minor in scale of other great aspect.
Super staff all interchanging and could multi-task! Great standard of cleanliness right to the carpets. And the quirkiness of the couches with mouse and roses and Telford's bridge equation .. unique! Great food.

It would be good to have a shelf or two in the bathroom to lay toilet bags, etc. The little drawer unit was pretty but not useful. We used the window sill for our things.
