Nice Bar staff. This seems like a common theme. They also gave us a 12 checkout instead of 11. Nice walk area around the hotel.

The house was purchased by The McCarthy family business in 1919, who added bedrooms and a function room. The hotel belonged to the McCarthy's for the next six decades, gaining a reputation for excellent food and service. The Patrick family acquired the Hotel in 1978 and further developed the Hotel until the Stafford Investment Company purcha

The rooms were dated, could do with a revamp. There was marks on the walls and the carpet looked quite old. The leisure centre had a broken sauna and the out door hot tub was not up to working properly. Check out was also quite early, 11am as opposed to the usual 12pm checkout in most hotels.
The staff were quite nice. The restaurant front of house, Karl provided us with excellent service which was second to none. We were given a table with a view and the food was great too.

Refer to above comment
Rooms were spotless and bed was very comfy. We ate in the bar on sat night and the food was amazing. Only thing we waited 22 minutes to get ourid drinks brought to us. When we my lime for my Corona was covered in red substances which I didn't know what it was. I took it back to the manager and he just handed me out a new one. Also bar staff handling the lime to put into bottles isn't very professional. Overall with the exception of these our stay was good.

I was expecting a corporate type hotel but it was much better than that. The breakfast was fairly standard but the evening meals were delicious, beautifully cooked and presented. Although located close to the N11 the traffic noise was not intrusive and there are extensive woodland walks from the gardens. Well equipped pool jacuzzi and out door hot tub but check the times children are allowed in the pool if you want a good swim! The gift of a packet of tasty biscuits as we were leaving was a nice touch.
