Positive: Comfortable hotel and good food, very well situated to reach so many places in the area.
Negative: We weren’t warned of not staying in the old hotel itself (which was the main attraction) but in a modern shared house across the car park. Small basic very plain rooms with no view. No sitting area within the room to relax in but the hotel lounge itself was comfortable if you went across to it.
Summary: Traditional hotel with basic modern rooms across car park

Positive: Good quality furnishings and tastefully decorated. Comfortable sofas in lounge and library areas. Staff willing to please.
Negative: We stayed in Dale 1, ground floor Lodge and some voile or vertical blinds at the windows would have given us some more privacy from the car park.
