Didn’t like no storage in the bedroom. Only 6 hangers for two of us. Also the menu was too fancy for us so we couldn’t eat there as nothing plain for us and we would have loved to chill in the restaurant and bar area without having to drive out for dinner each evening. Staff were amazing as are the grounds.
