Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Aspects I liked:
Gorgeous, spotless, very comfortable, very spacious and well-furnished lodge (suite), tasteful, contemporary decor, with very long desk, kitchen area with table and chairs, sofa, beautiful bathroom, garden view, patio doors and garden furniture
Lovely afternoon tea, reasonably priced, in the attractively decorated Gilbert's Restaurant
Good choice of food at breakfast, the vegan option with avocado, spinach and other vegetables being both delicious and healthy, in the bar and via the room service menu, all reasonably priced.
Pleasant and helpful staff
Attractive, courful, scented flowers in pots, hanging baskets and beds
Quality and quantities of drinks in lodge and of shower gel, shampoo and body lotion
Ease of obtaining a taxi via Reception
Possibility of woodland walks
Tranquil atmosphere
Decor and furnishings/lighting in the main hotel
History of the hotel was interesting to read about
Aspects I disliked:
Very bumpy driveway leading to/from hotel - drivers worried about their vehicles' tyres and suspension being damaged
Some branches overhanging parts of driveway should probably be cut back
Better lighting at night to illuminate driveway would be appreciated
