My stay at the hotel was so nice. The room had been set up for family use, which was great. It was lit with a fabulous dressing table to do my makeup, had a huge comfy bed, great shower, and I loved the traditional key instead of a swipe card. The only downside was that the dining room seemed a bit stretched at times.

The staff appeared to be very stretched during busy periods but were more relaxed and obliging when it was quieter. They were rushing up and down so fast that it was hard to get their attention for replacements. The service was decent overall.

The hotel is welcoming and has a lovely smell from the 'real' fire. The location is out of this world, and the staff couldn't do enough for us. However, the hotel is small and not ideal for spending the evening drinking.

The hotel offered immaculately clean rooms beautifully decorated with quality furnishings that struck a great balance while considering space. The views of the grounds and gardens were fantastic, although a bit more 'wow' factor could elevate the experience. The walk-in shower and coffee making facilities in the bedroom were nice touches. Service was excellent overall, particularly at reception and dining; however, some staff members seemed a bit off-hand and indifferent. The location, although small and not very appealing, featured fabulous rooms in the main house with beautiful views. The dining experience was a mix of fantastic service with a friendly and welcoming waiter, but some delays and cold dishes were disappointing. The facilities were adequate with a lovely atmosphere but could use a bit of improvement in some areas.

My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms felt more like an old folks' home with no lively atmosphere, and there was a noisy table disrupting the peace. On the upside, the hotel turned into a party spot until 5 in the morning, and it was a cozy and luxurious retreat. However, the room did not match what was promised, missing amenities, like slippers and a 40-inch TV, and the special treats I arranged were nowhere to be found, which was disappointing and affected the whole trip.

I had a luxurious and extremely comfortable stay in the room, which was the most comfortable I've experienced so far. The cleanliness was remarkable, and I can't wait to return. However, the room being very dated with a TV from 15 years ago and small radiators made it freezing, plus there was no AC in the room. The key was so big you couldn't even put it in your pocket.

The service was fantastic, and the staff were mostly really lovely, especially the night staff and in the spa. They could not have been more friendly and helpful, with excellent facilities. We even got nice extra bits & bobs in the room, which my two girls Sophie and Ruby loved; they were brought two goodies bags to keep them amused.

Location

7.0

The location was a nice place to get away from everything, but a little far out for going out in town. It was being used for a drinks reception, but it could do with a paint and clean-up. On checking out, we were rudely asked to pay €40 for a Saturday stay supplement.

The dining experience was disappointing, with limited options, but the quality was good. The service, like afternoon tea and cooked to order, was impressive, but there were lapses like ordered porridge arriving after cooked breakfast.

The hotel overall was a mixed experience. While the rooms were very clean and offered a beautiful view with access to the garden area, they were a bit cold during the stay. The service was fantastic with friendly and accommodating staff, although the dining experience fell short with some disappointing dishes. The location was good for a country retreat, offering a peaceful atmosphere, but the food quality was inconsistent. Despite some drawbacks, the hotel provided a secure and well-maintained environment.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms were very clean and comfortable, but the noise from people walking up-and-down a gravel path right beside our window all evening was a major downside. The service was exceptional, with very helpful staff, although there were instances where some seemed annoyed. The location was perfect for a peaceful stay away from the city, but the untidy and unclean surroundings were disappointing. The dining options varied from sublime to slow service, and the facilities were decent overall.

I had an amazing time at this hotel! The rooms were spotless and so comfy, and I can't speak highly enough of the restaurant food and staff. However, my room was at the rear of the hotel, close to the family rooms located near the function room.

The staff seemed really nice and friendly. They were very friendly, but I noticed they did not scan guest tables for service requests, being much more generous in their care of people at other tables. The room service was efficient, and the housekeeping and laundry services were excellent. I also used the paid shuttle service, which was convenient. However, I missed having a welcome drink upon arrival.

The dining experience was good overall, with tasty dishes. However, it was slower on the second morning as the service seemed really busy. The portions were a bit skimpy with bits of everything on plates, but I enjoyed the flavors. Just note that it was colder than expected. I had breakfast at 10:20, and although the food was good, it could have been warmer.
