beautiful grounds filter coffee

the hall and grounds were very beautiful and dan was so cute. he even remembered our onwards plans on day 2 of our stay. the room was even better than it looks online and had a fabulous kitchen with a dishwasher and washing machine. a filter coffee machine was a nice surprise.

the gym was really bad, with 2 treadmills broken. poor weighted machines also meant i couldn't really do a full gym session.

rude staff boiler malfunction

the restaurant was not open when expected! the staff seemed rude when my husband asked about it, especially since they were just chatting. the boiler wasn't working when we arrived. this did get fixed, but it was still frustrating. the lack of open facilities really ruined the stay.
