+ Location and facilities were excellent.
− Dinner was lovely but breakfast was disappointing as it was over cooked. Appeared to be problems with water which they apologised for.

+ I loved the personal and adaptable touch from the team. It was a quiet period for the hotel and I sat in the lounge before dinner where the lady in charge put the fire on just for me and made me feel really comfortable and well looked after. I even had my dinner next to the fire rather than sitting alone in the dining room, it was a very lovely touch and one I will always remember. Thank you.

+ A perfectly acceptable dinner, breakfast, and room. Very obliging staff generally, and they were more than helpful in sorting out a better room for access by our elderly dog (initially we were on the second floor) The bar lady/waitress was excellent as well
− A moment of rudeness from one particular member of staff was a slight blip, but we were prepared to overlook that, as the rest of the stay was good
