The event team, admiral and amy, made my 50th birthday party nice. It felt as special as a wedding. guests stayed in lovely rooms and had a great experience. i liked the wedding suite we booked. the catering was excellent too.

I noticed the bathroom is quite noisy when water is used. The pump starts up loudly. also, i could constantly hear cars because the windows face the road.

The standard room double bed was clean, and the bed was beautifully made. i found the bed a bit hard. It gave me a sore back. the hotel staff forgot about our bathroom on the second morning.

Breakfast was good. i advise arriving early. The area is not large and you might wait for tea or coffee. there is disabled parking, and i reported that there was an unmarked drop at the planters onto a path. it definitely needs highlighting.
