The property is impressive from the outside, but not worthy of 4*. The room was showing its age, The bath sheet had freyed edges, cups didn't match, cheapest of cheap coffee,tea. One pack of biscuits between two people, Plastic cups for bathroom. Fan didnt work. Staff all nice and polite etx but the room's definitely not worthy of £120 a night.

Absolutely outstanding Hotel 🏨 and surroundings I can only imagine if I took a tour how more wow it would be, staff exceptional friendly and accommodating! Cleanliness of room, dust on top of cupboards a bit lazy! Some tiles in bathroom cracked needs addressing asap , room 45 asap!! Outside the hotel as you enter the pillars and archways need a jet wash full of bird poo very unattractive to say the least. The worst comes last £40 charge for my pets without no prior warning ⚠️ or knowledge! Some issues that need addressing! To make anyone’s experience a complete package 📦! I am so happy we stayed with you & we are very happy to come again as we felt so welcomed and loved 🥰 The grounds are kept to an amazing standard hats off to the up keepers!!! The singer a lady sang a song gave me goose bumps all the way through OMG Cake was lovely and thank you for the gift 🎁 Thank you for topping my beer up and making an extra effort the following evening & reading my mind likewise 😉 Stunning experience Impressive Would recommend to anyone especially if you change the sausages at breakfast time😂 :))) Thank you so much for everything Teddy&Dogs

Although very nice hotel, I was initially put out as the key I was given, there was already someone in that room! Although the situation was sorted, being a customer service industry I would have expected a little more empathy from the desk clerk.

Wonderful traditional Victorian hotel. High ceilings, traditional wood walled bar and loads of space in rooms. Such a change from major hotel franchises and so English in history. Friendly staff, good food and right across road from pier. Fab

All of the staff were friendly and welcoming. Breakfast staff were very efficient. Set in beautiful grounds the building is attractive. The room was great, plenty of storage, enough seating, lighting and power points. Even though I chose a single room, the bed, including the pillows and bedding was all very comfortable and the bathroom was a decent size with a shower over bathtub. I didnt make use of the spa/ leisure facilities this time but would be something I look forward to using on another stay.
