Lovely stay for 2 nights. Staff lovely and professional. Really don't understand why residents have to pay £15 per day to park car at hotel.
Would deter me staying in future

Although the property was being externally renovated it did not detract from the feeling of being looked after, the staff were very polite and pleasant and nothing was too much trouble.

Gardens were lovely. Great location & views across the water.
Scaffolding is unfortunate but the workers should have moved hoodies, drinks etc when not working.
Room was nice & staff fixed the leaking shower. Bed was comfy & breakfast food overall. £15 for parking is poor & I spent nothing in the hotel because of this. Would stay again.

We visited in the middle of a refurbishment which wasn’t a major problem other than our lake view suite was obscured a bit by the scaffolding but we were told about this before our arrival. All the staff were lovely and welcoming as well as extremely helpful. We would definitely go back for another visit soon.

It was a very pleasant place to stay on the way back from Scotland to the Midlands. The 'cosy' room was bigger than expected and of course very clean, the staff were friendly and efficient, the breakfast was excellent.
Thank you.
