Really good Girls' Getaway!
detailed tour delicious food warm log burner
My mum and I had a much-needed girls' getaway and experienced very nice service. The staff gave a detailed, personal tour and explained the benefits of each room. I dined at the new OAK restaurant that features plants, wood accents, and a warm log burner. The food was delicious, and the staff gave excellent recommendations.
The toilet cistern ran constantly, but I managed to get it silenced.

The staff displayed consistent professionalism. They were well-trained and friendly, paying close attention to every detail. My superior double room offered ample space and comfort. I found a wide variety of choices and the food quality to be very good.
