Dislikes:
Bathroom facilities were very poor, the shower could do with updating and could also use a grab rail, also had to carry own luggage up to the room and I am elderly and my husband walks with sticks.

"Couldn't have been more accommodating..,"
We came to stay as our friends were getting married. The staff were more than helpful, letting us check in early and giving us notice of the event that the hotel was itself running. The room was clean, tidy and well priced. Breakfast was just the ticket after the wedding. Did I mention how friendly and helpful the staff were? Read less

"Very friendly and welcoming"
Overnight stay after a nearby wedding reception. Rooms were clean and some had a very interesting layout! A lovely building. Beds comfortable, in-room tea/coffee/tv etc, en-suite bathroom facilities. The warning about the event happening inside the hotel was much appreciated, although we didn't find ourselves disturbed by it. Read less

"Understaffed"
Wedding party caused chaos at breakfast .. staff seemed untrained, and couldnt cope.
The tea arrived eventually, toast arrived after we had eaten the breakfast. Not enough staff on to clear the tables.
Why not have tea bags and hot water, for self service, rather than making double the work for the waiters, running in and out with tea pots ?
We couldn't work the TV in our room.
Comfy bed, thankyou .. not much room to move in the room.
We would probably return next year. Read less
Likes:
Proximity to Twinwood.
Lovely old house.
Effort made by understaffed crew
Dislikes:
Staff overworked.
Breakfast chaotic
Room too small.
