I have stayed at this hotel man times over the years, they have great function rooms, a nice restaurant and the rooms are nice although quite small.
The hotel generally is not what it used to be and it feels as if they are taking their success for granted. The food used to be great, now it is just ok and the meals provided in the last few functions I attended was very average.
Overall I think they need to start making an effort to get this lovely hotel back to what it was.

This hotel has been "around" for 30ish years. The location is excellent as it is on the outskirts of the town and is surrounded by countryside.
We had a good deal at £85 per room B&B.

The check in staff were friendly and we were pleased with our room although no a/c. The room was small but well planned and exceptionally clean. Bathroom spotless.

There was a party night in one of the function rooms and although we could hear the fun it was over by 12.30am.

Breakfast was in the Brasserie and could find no fault with the food or service.

For a 3 star hotel it is well worth the money.

Lovely Hotel . . . Clean rooms, Great views and pretty court yards, Parking, Helicopter pad (For those who need it !) And the extras as well - trouser press, shoe shine machines, kettles, TV, bathroom items . Breakfast was a feast . . . (gorgeous sausages !!) You would think you were in some remote area of the country side too.
BUT
The only down side I found was that although the Wedding Reception was booked at this hotel for 4pm and the wedding was at 2am in London, one of the reception staff appeared adamant that we could not check in before 2pm (We arrived at 1130 after a 230 mile journey) . We pleaded to try and find us a room before this time, so we could change our clothes, but was told that this would not be likely. To 'Join the queue' . We could change in the toilets if we wanted to instead. Eventually we were given a room an hour earlier than the alloted check in time and everybody was happy. I thought that the staff member could have been a bit more empathic in her approach to us (Shortfall in good customer care here), instead of a stoney faced 'No'. Maybe a short term courtsey room should be made available for guests who have travelled long journeys, especially for those who are using the hotel for the wedding breakfast and evening reception too. . . . Just an idea ??

We attended a wedding reception and stayed overnight. The wedding meal was excellent, with exceptionally good service at table.
The staff were all very friendly, and helpful - for instance, when we asked at reception for extra towels, someone insisted on coming straight away to provide them.
The pool was shut when we were there.
The room was welll decorated and had all amenities. Looked like it had been recently refurbished.
Breakfast was excellent - good selection of fresh hot food.
I would definately recommend the hotel - comfortable, friendly, and a good 'quality' feel to the place.
