Reviewer Type: Couple
Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: lovely location, excellent restaurant food, exceptional chef. very friendly professional staff. aspects of the hotel were lovely and the Terrace restaurant and bar and seating area are all very nice. we liked the authentic character of this period large house/hotel
Negative: The room we were in number 10 was pokey and cramped- the bed small and uncomfortable and the toilet was blocked from the outset . not pleasant. the view from the window is definitely not as stated 'country view' it is mainly blocked by a wall. there is very little space to open your case, this room was very overpriced for what it was. the sink plug hole had rust around it and despite the bathroom tiles being nice the bathroom wasn't great. the soap dispenser on shower wall didnt work and the radiator was not heated we tried to switch it on to no avail. it was very disappointing
Summary: Some very lovely aspects to this hotel but there needs to be a big rethink about the no 10 bedroom
