Overall we had a lovely stay. Breakfast was amazing. Reception was friendly. But my suitcase was searched through by housekeeping even though I had put it in the wardrobe. Nothing was taken just my clothes moved around and biscuits taken out of it. I reported this and reception staff said they would look into it.

We booked the Ryder suite. Beautiful and luxurious room. There was a nearby bar or restaurant that was very loud into the early morning hours (2-3 am) but we can’t fault the property for that. Otherwise our stay was perfect.
