After one hour we had a bottle of wine a bottle of... More

All the staff were very helpful and friendly but Sammy Joe was especially good, she worked Sunday afternoon in restaurant, Sunday evening she was solely serving diners in the Brasserie and was then again on duty Monday morning in the restaurant for breakfast and could not have been more professional...

Stayed here with work colleagues for 1 night before a meeting in Nottingham having been here some years back and had a good experience. It has changed! Service was appalling and waited over an hour for the main course after starter. Starter was overcooked and awful, main course very average and then another delay for dessert. Breakfast the following day... More

We met up with our brother and sister-in-law for a catch up weekend. We couldn't have found a nicer place. We had superior rooms in the old house, well worth it. Clean large room with all the facilities. Friendly staff every where and the food was superb. Dinner from an excellent menu was very good as was breakfast. My only... More
