We booked because we were going to enjoy dinner on the terrace with some music entertainment as advertised on their website. Unfortunately this was a mistake and should have been removed from the marketing. Katie was very helpful and as we couldn’t cancel the booking she arranged for a reduction on our meal cost. Our meal was lovely, plenty to choose from. The room was acceptable, big comfortable bed. We were on 2nd floor so it was hot and the fan was ok but minimally effective in cooling the room. Bathroom was standard. Tea tray was great with good sized mugs and plenty of milk sachets. We were woken too early by people in the room next door allowing their room door to slam. Breakfast was great with plenty of options. Hot, tasty and well presented.
