A lovely hotel with beautiful garden, but perhaps not quite meeting its 'luxury' tag. The room was large and quirky, with a lovely bathroom, although a little dark being in the roof space. The bed was a little hard though, which didn't make for the best night's sleep.
Food was a mixed bag - steak was perfectly cooked, but chips under cooked. Breakfast was decent, if not overly special.
Staff were also mixed. Lovely waiting staff at dinner, followed by a rather abrupt lady taking our order at breakfast. Most disappointingly we were double charged at checkout, having paid online beforehand. We informed the reception staff of this fact but they assured us it was normal practice and they hadn't been paid by Hotels.com. Upon checking later, this was incorrect and we had to call up to get refunded by the hotel - which was quick and painless, but noticeably missing the word "sorry", which a shame.
Covid restrictions were in place, although not always followed by some residents (...a tendency to walk around maskless between spaces, sadly without being challenged).
