friendly staff online check big portions terrible food farmed salmon poor veggie options
i found the staff super friendly! they gave such a warm welcome. online check in and out, it made things so easy. food tasted great, and the portions were so big. i'd say it was great value.
i went there for new year's eve, what a mistake. they served farmed salmon and mash, or meat and chips. the veggie options were also terrible.

extensive menu great service beautiful decor crowded bar negative atmosphere unaddressed alarm
the food in the restaurant was great, i especially liked the breakfast menu, it was extensive. the staff were always smiling and ready to help, they provided great service. my room had beautiful decor, i found it relaxing and peaceful.
The bar was quite crowded when i wanted to get a drink. It was hard to find a seat. the fire alarm went off early one morning, there was no explanation given, though i think that it was an error.

I found the room to be very clean. The furniture was in good condition too. the beautiful kingsize bed was roomy and comfortable, perfect for resting my weary head. breakfast offered a good choice, ensuring a good start to the day.
the car park seemed full, a small inconvenience when arriving. also, i overheard some staff moaning, it was a little off putting to hear such things.
