Overpriced ”
Hotel was in a great location and was clean however the food was extremely overpriced (£60) for afternoon tea! And I didn’t feel the room was anything special considering how much it cost! The views from the restaurant were lovely however but a nice weekend away became so so expensive

Good trip”
It was lovely and the only thing that was needed in the room was a fridge and I wish there was.
