We had a very relaxing break at the Salthouse. The scenery and hotel are absolutely beautiful! All of staff were very friendly and attentive. We ate in the Look Out on both evenings and my husband and myself agreed that it was the best meal we have eaten in along time! Can’t wait to return!

We had a very pleasant stay in a classic room. The room was very comfortable, the only drawback being the sound of water discharges from the room above, through adjacent pipework. Dining room and food was excellent. Staff were excellent. Our room had a view over the car park, which was probably one of the better views! The hotel was pleasantly situated close to town with lovely views from the public spaces. Beautiful courtyard area with plenty of outdoor seating. Enjoyed our stay.
