It should be 5 stars but just isn’t (yet)..
This place is set in the most beautiful surroundings and the staff are wonderful, it was really clean and comfortable. The place has so much potential however am not sure I would go back at the moment. Our room decor really felt tired with a few things missing and certainly wouldn’t put it into the ‘luxury’ category, however the price bracket certainly is!

Misleading information on dining amenities. Lists with 2 restaurants open for all 3 meals. There was no indication that their main restaurant was closed and the other restaurant closed at 5 pm. I had to email to find this out. I would not have booked if I knew I could not eat or drink past 5 pm. The recommendation was a pub nearby. It is a very overly priced 1-night stay for a place with no dinner options or room service.

Amazing location and very comfortable but…
Amazing location, very quiet and rural close to the lake. The property whilst comfortable and clean desperately needs a refurb. Threadbare carpets and fittings are from the 80’s, there are no USB points and no air conditioning. Fortunately the weather was cool but a hot summers day would be a different story. I would stay here again but a full modern refit would make it an amazing place to stay. Finally, for those with an electric car there is a charge point close to the rooms.
