excellent accessible overnight stay
I was only staying overnight but I was very comfortable - I am over 80 and disabled so that was very important. The only problem was that although I thought I had booked an accessible room I hadn't so it is important to talk to the reception team - who swiftly corrected that and found me an accessible room within a few minutes. I didn't like the AI receptionist who answered the phone but she is easily sidestepped by just insisting 'Manager' and you get put through. The dinner was very good.

Just empty sufficient staff!
Two night break to see a nearby concert. Very pleasant room, well decorated, spacious and clean. Staff friendly enough especially in the bar . The main issue is breakfast where only one member of staff is employed to serve replenish, welcome and at one point manage reception. The poor guy had no chance. On our second morning we just left as it was clear we would be there for a significant time and that no items had been replaced at all at the buffet. Shame

Enjoyable stay
Our second visit, and more planned. Beautifully decorated, and clean rooms. Had a lovely meal in the pub. Some of the rooms are upstairs and down fairly long corridors, so my only advice would be to book directly, to ensure a ground floor room if needed.
