“In my opinion, this property stands out for its historical setting and proximity to Meadfoot Beach, which should appeal to families and couples. Its health club and indoor pool are definite advantages, although upkeep seems inconsistent. Based on what I explored, be aware that events occasionally impact service levels, but generally, the hotel's gardens and unique rooms make it a worthwhile consideration.”

the location looks out to the sea. the outdoor and indoor pools were lovely. the gym had equipment and a tennis court was available. the gardens were well tended.
the floodlight outside the window made sleep difficult. dinner in the restaurant was disappointing. the waitress was stressed and overwhelmed. the dessert was not good.
