Lovely CS and warm welcome.
Hotel was very decorated and Christmassy.
Quality of room service was disappointing, food tasted frozen then fried which was greasy and bland.
Room was clean and tidy. Lots of goodies to choose from for a hot drink in the room.
Shower was spacious, very hot water.

Must do better
Restaurant wouldn’t sit me immediately and wanted me to wait 45 minutes so they cater for a function so had to go and get dinner elsewhere. Bins were also emptied at 5am outside my room which was the great start to the day which included work meetings and a 4 hour drive home.

The room we stayed in was lovely the only thing is we paid extra to have the newer room in the carriage house but if you get allocated on the ground floor it’s so noisy with everyone else coming in and staying above with walking we kept getting woken up. The pool has recently revived and update but everywhere else in the spa is old and grubby. It needs finishing as it doesn’t seem like a spa. Outdoor hitting was also broken and not in action.
The breakfast in the morning was lovely and one of the best around.
