We really enjoyed our stay and the lovely staff.

Pros: Location is fantastic, and our room was lovely. Very comfortable bed. The staff were extremely helpful and friendly. Cleanliness was exceptional. Breakfast was lovely.

Cons: Some facilities could be improved. The fridge in the room didn’t work very well, and there was no facility to get milk late in the evening when staff weren’t on site. TV at the end of the bed felt a bit weird.
