The views of Dovedale were superb and the position of the hotel idyllic with easy parking. Dinner and breakfast were not high standard and the only waitress was rushed off her feet. Generally pleasant and helpful Staff.

Very pleasant hotel. Room spotless and comfortable. Wifi terrible but that is a small point. The kitchen was closed while we were there but breakfast was supplied although dinner not an option which was a pity. Lovely location and excellent waiters - very helpful and friendly.

Beautiful location but service was slow

We had a lovely stay for one night. The hotel location is stunning and we were delighted to see this on arrival. We had a room with a beautiful view but the interior of the hotel was comfortable but quite dated. Dinner was delicious but we waited a long time for it. Breakfast was ok but we had to go and look for cutlery and ask for coffee as it wasn’t replaced. Overall it was ok and we would return.

Alan

Disliked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Setting & scenery fantastic, the rest pretty poor. While the bar staff were attentive other staff were poor failing to provide basic information (like where to eat - the restaurant was shut) & showing little interest in doing their job or being attentive to residents. Breakfast was the poorest I've ever experienced in terms of quantity & quality. No croissants, pastries, fresh fruit. Yoghurt reused for a second breakfast after being left out in the heat on our first day. Had to ask for bread & hot food to be replenished. On checking out was told we owed money despite paying in advance & the hotel operating a pay as you go policy which meant food & drink had to be paid for when ordered/consumed. Giving the hotel 2/5 is being generous.
