Firstly can I say what an excellent wedding venue this hotel is! Wonderful setting, architecture and facilities with the vaulted hall to dance /get married in, lovely outside courtyard area , cosy pigsties to eat in, and efficient staff. However....the room we stayed in , and the other rooms our friends stayed in near to us, need updating. We were very disappointed in them, they are a little shabby and tired. The shower in our room had parts where the grout was black, the flexible hose part of the shower didn't work as a shower, water just poured out,and the fixed shower head was virtually impossible to use due to the position if it....you could barely get under it as it was jammed into a corner. Our friends had torn furnishings. We all found the pillows VERY uncomfortable ,...far too hard although this is a personal thing for 8 if is to find them uncomfortable perhaps they need to replace them. This was such a shame as we had a lovely time at the wedding and were looking forward to a room the same standard as the main part of the hotel seemed to be. To be fair we stayed in what they call the stable block, totally separate to the main house, a minute or two walk away. These rooms need time , attention and money spending in them, or a reduction in price. I stay in hotels a lot and I wouldn't say the room is worth more than £70 at the most as it is at the moment. The rooms in the main house could be better but I wouldn't stay in the block we stayed in again unless it has work done on it. I would have given an even lower rating but I am.jidging the hotel as a whole, not just in the room we stayed in. Be aware also as as it's on the flight path there will be plane noise...but if you're local you'll know this know this, and if you're not you've perhaps researched it. It didn't bother us though.
