10/10 Excellent
"Amazing from start to finish. Loved that the rooms were serviced twice daily… totally amazed at the room being prepared for bedtime. Water bottles restocked and placed at bedside with glasses, blinds closed, cushions etc removed off bed. Breakfast was splendid. Option of smoothie as well as fruit juice was delightful. The yoghurt with lemon curd was to die for. Such a selection of cold meats, fry, fruit, fresh baked breads. Loved every minute."
