We have stayed on several occasions and all the staff are lovely. However, our room was cold and we were told there was an issue with the AC which would be fixed the following day. It wasn't and we were provided with a portable heater. Also, the toiletry containers needed refilled - they were empty.

Beautiful room, absolutely spot on location, welcoming arrival, delicious breakfast and very helpful staff. The bar needs to sort itself out. Saturday night and cocktails stopped at 10:45, nowhere near enough staff when busy, hearing complaints from others about not being able to get a coffee. Overall, can't wait to come back :-)
