The hotel is great - gardens well maintained - staff very pleasant and helpful - housekeeping needs attention : bed top sheet well done, bottom sheet not even streched, cups and glasses not cleaned, coffee not replaced, floor not vacc or mopped on 3 days stay, towels not replaced when required. Housekeeper needs a better control.

Really disappointing given the expense

On the first night it took me 30 minutes to get through to in room dining. Then I was advised there was no standard beers available. The food that was delivered was terrible. The room is tired and does not accommodate any USB fittings. I found hair in the bathtub the following morning.
