A nice place to stay, but not quite as much scope to coorie in as expected. The rooms are not spacious (except Room 1), but they are well appointed and nicely decorated, with a large (very soft) bed. No thermostat on the radiator meant the room was cold on arrival and hot in the night. The shower room was adequate, but we found it annoying not to have anywhere to put anything in the shower cubicle (including the toiletry dispensers provided) other than on the floor. Also, the damaged showerhead had not been replaced, despite having apparently been reported previously.
The public area consists of a large dining room and small lounge/bar. The bar has comfy seating only for about four or five people, and when we went down for pre-dinner drinks at 6.30pm these were occupied and the log fire (nice touch) was almost out (not so good). Unfortunately, the central 'feature' log burning stove in the dining room was also left unattended, and had gone out by about 7.30pm.
Dinner was very good, as expected, although it was slightly annoying how many things, including vegetables, were charged as extras on top of the 'dinner, bed & breakfast' rate. As we often find in places majoring on their dinners, the breakfast was very disappointing. Our choice from the menu was restricted, the only coffee available was standard 'filter', and the cooked breakfast, while generous, was all pre-cooked in that tired, greasy way that lazy breakfast chefs excel at.
