We have been here before and had problems but thought we would give it another go. Still not a lot better. Food and drink is very overpriced and as the hotel is in the middle of nowhere, you do not have the option of going out. We probably will not return.

Lovely room and grounds. Only slight quibbles would be the shower (very close to the wall making it difficult to get fully under and not very powerful) and breakfast (could have been hotter). But overall nice place.
