Pros:The location was perfect and the staff extremely attentive and friendly. It was my mother's 85th birthday and she thoroughly enjoyed the luxury of the hotel. One of our group had a dog and again the staff were very accommodating and helpful. Thank you for a wonderful few days if only we could have stayed longer.
Cons:Whilst I understand an evening meal in such a perfect setting might come at a price the tea/coffee/ sandwiches we had for a snack on arrival were very expensive for what they were and we would have had a snack there again had it not been so expensive there for a round of sandwiches.
