excellent stay

warm welcomerange of fruitsspacious room
sue provided a warm welcome. the breakfast included a fabulous range of fresh fruits. the room was spacious and spotlessly clean. i really enjoyed the extra amenities, we loved the extra towels!
shower in our bathroom was terrible, hot water but very low water pressure, being as it was nye we returned late at about 3am, we were woken up possibly about 5 by a woman screaming and alot of arguing, it sounded like they were in the next room but hard to tell, either way very annoying, i understand it's nye but still you want your hotel to be peaceful, shame as that put a downer on a very nice weekend away.

the shower's water pressure was insufficient. i found it difficult to rinse properly. the noise from other guests late at night was also unacceptable. the disturbance detracted from what could have been a quiet night.

I received a warm greeting upon arrival and was given the option to select from two available rooms. The cleanliness was amazing, and I enjoyed a restful night. Breakfast was included and offered a great selection of cereals, fruit, and pastries. It was beautifully prepared.
The bathroom had very low water pressure in the shower, a minor inconvenience.
