Reviewer Type: Couple

Travel Purpose: leisure

Positive: Staff are very friendly Lunch was out of this world , the food was the best we have had in a long time

Negative: Breakfast needs better organising , the full English we had was excellent.. however the ‘breakfast room ‘ needs to be better organised, the water / drinks bar area and table where you help yourself to toast and pastries was not what we expected for this calibre of hotel , looked like it had all be thrown on the table in a hurry

Summary: Fantastic hotel , great staff but upgrade the layout and organisation of breakfast
