Not very welcoming
Pleasant hotel location but the staff overall and at the checkin was far from welcoming.
The hotel was dirty and old fashioned. The service was the worst I have had in any hotel while travelling in the uk and Europe. They assumed things that was not true and being a gentleman I corrected them and paid my way. The swimming pool is only free from 7 am till 9am. During breakfast. Then there is a financial cost the the guest for the use off. This was not clear on the website when booking.
Its a stunning location set in beautiful surroundings. Sadly it doesn't include use of the facilities as i had to pay £15 to access them. Wasn't impressed with the charge and apparently that was a special offer price. The room we had was very, very warm and with no air-conditioning sadly it made for quite an uncomfortable night. I will add fans were provided in the cupboard but they just circulated the warm air frustratingly. All in all a gorgeous location but glad i only stayed one night. The spa and outdoor hot tubs are really nice but i don't believe an extra charge for their use is acceptable.
Nice friendly staff free parking nice room clean and tidy was small room nice dinner and breakfast went to use the swimming after breakfast was told by staff your too late after 9.30am you have to pay £25 to use the facilities how ridiculous you as a, quest can come free before 9.30am bad communication from front reception didn't tell me about the charges or about the leisure facilities policys not good customer services between the hotel staff I felt I have been cheated out of paying very good money at the hotel for a small room and than been told to pay for lesuire facilities on the day not mentioned anywhere when I booked my hotel this the reason I booked it with lesuire facilities to use unfortunately got turned away from staff very emotional aleast they could have saus on this occasion please use it and either make a policy to pay or not to pay and nothing mentioned on the card about charges.
Quiet and comfortable, but dissapointing about the cost for a swim. Hotel needs updating, especially for the room rate and other options available. Opportunites for nice walks around the hotel.

Beautiful grounds, underwhelming interior
Room is spacious but the bathtub is tiny. Very few toiletries and carpets throughout the hotel look dated.
Breakfast room was small and we had to wait a while to be seated which would have been unnecessary if vacated tables were being cleaned promptly.
The grounds outside are beautiful and if you’re looking for a picturesque place for a wedding, this is it.
However, would not return for a romantic weekend away.
Been several times but not since new owners. Everything is now extra, to ask for a specific room £10 extra, I booked this hotel because it has a fabulous pool / hot tub but upon arrival was told this is now £15 per person perday extra… what’s point of booking a hotel with pool/gym and u have to pay to use them. Beautiful location and great food though. So for the sake of £15 I won’t be back.
Sadly throughout the stay as I was on my own and not with the bigger groups I was left, forgotten to take an order and information provided not as would have hoped for.
Disappointing stay and won’t be staying again
The surroundings and ambiance of the hotel were beautiful and the staff were always polite and attentive. The food was lovely and there was plenty of convenient parking.
I was staying in a room in the old house on the island, which provided beautiful views and grand interiors.
Could be a little noisy in the mornings with trolley's being wheeled over the cobbles.
Following some early confusion with my booking which was my own fault. The Duty Manager was quick to resolve this, which I was very grateful for. All staff and the facilities are excellent and well recommended.
