We had an evening meal with our family. The food was excellent, reasonably priced and a good choice. The breakfast in the morning was inclusive of the room price and was also excellent. Staff were friendly and helpful. Room was very spacious and bed large and comfortable.
The heating in the accomodation wing was out of order. Unfortunatly, this was not realised until late in the evening so an engineer could not be made available. However, the staff were very understanding and supplied extra blankets in case we needed them.

A few minor things which ned seeing to like the door handle to the room was coming off and needed to use the key to open and close the door. Floor in the bathroom needs re grouting as looks a little grubby. On the whole a very pleasant stay and would definitely stay again. Breakfast was also very nice.
Could do with windows and sill cleaning outside and the few repairs I stated above.
