Spacious room, great view of parkland. Large wardrobe/many hangers. Comfortable king-size bed but little on hard side. Two comfortable armchairs, quality cushions/bed pillows.TV small and didn't work (?) - poor signal or connection. Smart TV expected for price of 'premium room'. Ensuite bathroom good size, shower poor - little power from hand held showerhead, long wait for hot water. Sealant/seal on shower panel needs replacing in parts.. No receptacle for toothpaste/toothbrushes.
Dining room/bar area pleasant. Evening menu varied and reasonably priced. Service and food were very good- starters and mains piping hot. Breakfast very good.
Stay marred and very much spoilt by following.
Check-in 2.00 pm, checked in 3.00 pm. Went to Room 4, chosen by Kim to celebrate 65th birthday. Booked indirectly, after viewing hotel 'site' - 'perfect ....for a romantic stay' (quote). Walked to first floor room, passing function' in room adjoining ours. Noise of the function, described by management (2 men) as afternoon tea, was a Baby Shower. Non-stop noise - shrieking loud young women, party poppers
bursting balloons which went on for three hours. No chance of relaxing or staying in room despite Manager, Alex, saying ends in hour or two. No sympathy - go sit in restaurant, have a free drink, change rooms, leave but little or no empathy; excuse - Jan, do you expect us not to take advantage. Excuses of Alex, made Alan lose temper; we went from Bar to Foyer where row with other Manager.
