- JJo Whittaker01/11/2018The prettiest venue everThe prettiest venue everThis hotel couldn't of been more accommodating we had afternoon tea at half the price of a normal sit down meal they did so much food and the quality was amazing the cakes all homemade on the day and fresh fruit with cream and we could add what we wanted or change things even last minute. The honeymoon suite was clean and cosy big king size bed with 2 arm chairs where we sat drinking champagne eating cake opening all our cards and presents at the end of the evening. Full English breakfast in room the following morning no complaints what so ever at the service we received highly recommended. And the grounds the hotel is in is just perfect for photos everyone who attended said it was the calmest prettiest wedding ever and it was all thanks to the hosts. My only grumble was I dislocated my knee the week before the wedding so getting up the stairs to bedroom was a problem lol oh and the honeymoon was not exactly perfect as my leg swelled so much on the flight I spent 3 days in bed and was pushed around in a wheel chair so would love the opportunity to take my lovely husband away again as he didn't moan at me once for being stuck at the resort when he wanted to do as many trips as we could we had to cancel them all This hotel couldn't of been more accommodating we had afternoon tea at half the price of a normal sit down meal they did so much food and the quality was amazing the cakes all homemade on the day and fresh fruit with cream and we could add what we wanted or change things even last minute.
