excellent room and dining

convenient serviceincluded gownsfriendly ducks
The room service was very convenient, i appreciated the inclusion of dressing gowns and a phone in the room (a rarity these days!). i enjoyed the views from the patio area. Friendly ducks were present too. the restaurant food and staff were excellent (lucy, val, steve, kev, eddie, and soner oz were pretty good).
the room was slightly cold, i think more insulation would help.

we stayed during my daughters wedding celebration. the venue presented itself as really good. tracey and kam oversaw every detail from the start. the spacious room offered views and cleanliness. breakfast tasted delicious. i am grateful.
the bathroom grout shows discoloration. the extraction fan cover in bathroom fell off. shower pressure felt inconsistent. this caused some concern but did not diminish the visit.
