Hotel very good. Whilst being renovated everything was lovely and still as we remember.
Only thing was small choice at brekkie but still nice though and really quiet this weekend too
Great staff, great location. The hotel and the room was lovely. The only negative is some areas inside are a little tired and I do not think you should have to pay for parking in your staying at the hotel considering the car park is on it’s own grounds.

Staff were all fantastic, from check in to check out. Nothing was too much and finally wonderful choice at breakfast.
Clean & comfortable room with lake view.
Excellent staff on reception, Nick in the bar (great cocktails) & in the brasserie.
Enjoyed breakfast selection and 2 evening meals. Steaks were superb.
Gorgeous, grand hotel in a fantastic location.
Service great from all staff and hotel clean throughout.
Family rooms a great size and ideal for a family of 4.
Hotel is currently undergoing a period of renovation and you can see this is needed in places but this is to be expected for a grand and historic hotel.
Although the hotel was currently being renovated outside it did not effect our stay . We both enjoyed all aspects of our stay ie. Cleanliness, Of Room, selection of breakfast items , excellent service from staff. Fully enjoyed our stay .

All of it, the staff and upgraded me to lake view as it was my wife’s 50th
I had a fabulous stay. The staff were great, the location is wonderful. My room was cosy. There’s some scaffolding up over some of the restaurant windows at the moment but it didn’t impinge on my stay.
I always love staying at this hotel. I know they are currently working on the property, but it is always a pleasure to stay here. The food is very good as well and the staff is friendly.
