The hotel itself was absolutely beautiful. We had such an amazing stay for my partners 30th. The food was lovely (was expensive though) but overall was so lovely. The staff were all very friendly and was a great wee stay for our wee dog as he got breakfast in the morning in the hotel. The only downside was that there was a wedding on the day we checked out. Check out time was listed as 11am on their website and in the room, however, we were rushed out of the room at 8:30am this morning so they could clean it for the wedding guests arriving. We only had about 15 minutes to pack all of our stuff and leave the hotel. I would stay here again though apart from that

Lovely room, really big and a large comfy bed. What more do you need?… maybe a few more gluten free options at breakfast would be good, there was nothing on the buffet I could eat. But I did get a cooked breakfast that was nice.

Lovely hotel for our overnight stay, staff very friendly. Restaurant was very good for our evening meal with a comprehensive menu. Only slight downside was they were doing some groundwork at the rear and side of the property so it was a little noisy early in the morning.
