Excellent stay, bed was comfortable and the room was spotless. The bathroom and communal areas could do with a bit of an update but it certainly didn’t spoil our stay. The best thing about the hotel has got to be the location and the view over the lake 👌

4/10 Fair

Great location friendly staff. Hotel in poor condition. Dated. Building work in gardens spoils view. Areas of hotel in dire need of work. Dining room walls unpainted socket hanging off wall. Room very underwhelming for supposed top suite. Walls dirty some areas old fashioned. Breakfast expected fresh cooked not canteen style buffet. Chaotic breakfast overlooking building site. Over priced for what it is and living off old reputation

10/10 Exceptional

We came to celebrate a birthday and the view of the lake walking in was incredible and truly breathtaking. What a welcome. We had an incident the first morning which we reported to the staff, and Sarah the Manager was brilliant the way she handled it, couldn’t have asked for more. Then we absolutely must give a shout out to Ian, Nick, Charlie, and Miguel who were just incredible throughout our stay and really made us want to stay longer despite the workman around. They were so welcoming and went above and beyond for us. Walking distance from the lakes and shops (literally 3minutes), stunning views, restaurants and cafes everywhere, room service was great, dinner at the restaurant was amazing (burgers and Caesar salad). We’d definitely return and wish the new owner was keeping even just a couple of the dog friendly rooms - please!!
