The location was lovely and so was the hotel itself beautiful view from our room and food was very good. Just a couple of niggles which was a shame and let it down, we felt the staff were quite arrogant, we specifically booked a table early to sit in a window seat. However a booking for 10 took priority and they totally changed the layout of the room, this after we had already spent over £50 on drinks.No apology no alternative just it is what it is. The prices of the drinks changed we were charged 3 different prices for the same drinks whicy was disappointing. Finally, we arrived Saturday afternoon and sat next to a couple who had food, our glasses and their plates of leftover food were still outside this morning! when I did take our empty glasses back to the bar there wasn't even a thankyou. I think that training on politeness and cleanliness needs to be given to certain staff members!

The Food and the service at this hotel are definitely it’s plus points and I would rate both the food and staff service 9/10. However it is clear that a revamp of the hotel is required, it’s decor is somewhat dated and with a more contemporary but still in keeping with the age of the building would make this a 9/10 hotel overall. The room had a brilliant view and definitely the main highlight. The shower which, lacked any oomph at all was disappointing after a hard days walking a good strong shower would have been great. Overall though our stay was pleasant and I would still recommend to others. Didn’t think the room price gave the best value . £120-130 would have been a fairer price range.

Perfect setting, the scenery was amazing. A beautiful hotel with its on little quirks. Staff were very helpful. Hotel was very clean and the food was good. Breakfast was lovely as was the lovely lady who served us, thank you 😊 Room was really nice, lovely size, comfortable bed and nice little touches such as coffee, biscuits and toiletries. If i had to pick a fault the only thing i could say was the shower was very weak other than that it was a lovely place for a relaxing break.

Superb location
Lovely location. Surrounded by fields, hills, cows and sheep. Very quiet. Room was quite comfortable, but TV was very small and too far from the beds to be able to watch properly. Breakfast was good, and they provided plain yogurt when we asked (there was none on the cold buffet). The poached eggs were excellent! Overall it was a bit expensive, but worth paying the extra for the superb location.

Though in need of some updating the hotel was very clean and we were greeted by extremely polite, friendly and helpful staff. The location of the hotel and surrounding area is absolutely stunning. I feel bad but unfortunately I can’t give top marks because the spa bath in our bathroom was not working which was very disappointing as I was so looking forward to using it, so had to settle for a regular bath instead. My husband and I decided to booked the restaurant for our evening meal. I couldn’t fault my meal, from start to finish it was delicious however my husband didn’t share the same opinion which is such a shame. The view from our room was spectacular, looking out onto huge hills, cows and sheep. Simply breathtaking!

We stayed at the hotel for 2 nights. The room was spacious, clean and comfortable. The decor in the hotel is slightly dated. The location is absolutely fantastic, it is set in such beautiful surroundings and we had great views from our room. It was wonderful to be able to walk to the Stepping Stones. We had breakfast and dinner at the hotel, there was plenty of choice in the menu and my food was tasty, but my partner said his dinner was slightly overcooked.
