The hotel was extremely busy with Christmas parties. Unfortunately, this made the service in the restaurant extremely slow. We waited over an hour for our main course. The quality of the food wasn't the best either, possibly due to the over busy kitchen. The hotel itself is lovely and with no complaints about the staff, the dining room was the only negative..

Overall disappointed
Building and the surrounding areas were very nice. Check in was good and bar service etc as you would expect. Extremely disappointed with the prompt 11am check out on a weekend and breakfast only until 10am. These times are not in keeping with other hotels, especially at a weekend. Also offered to pay for a late checkout which was refused. Room service was only available until 9:30pm and no overnight service offered. Room was clean and newly refurbished feel but no aircon and you could only open one window slightly, as the other was sealed shut, it made the room very hot and an uncomfortable nights stay. They had a wedding on the Saturday, and this place certainly looks and caters for weddings, but felt other guests, who would pay the same, lost out because of this. For these reasons would not book again considering the cost!

A fantastic 1 night stay on our way to Northumberland and Scotland on a Monday night. We had a lovely room in the main house that overlooked the garden. The lady on reception (sorry didn't get her name) was super helpful and friendly. We ate in the restaurant which was very good. Even managed to a dip in the pool in the lovely spa building. Would definately stay again.
