   Food disappointing for the cost, the portion size and quality. Better quality food at the local pub the following evening at a ¼ of the price.

   Starters were excellent but main course of Lemon chicken did not really match the menu descriptions. One piece of the chicken undercooked. Wine was good and service was excellent

   The food and service were excellent. My only criticism would be how quickly the food arrived. From sitting down to leaving it was 1 hr. We spent £135 and it felt quite rushed. A more relaxed approach would make the experience 5 stars across the board.

   Breakfast £18 for a bowl of cereal and a half slice of toast unacceptable but this is the standard price for continental breakfast, with extremely little and poor choice, dinners also expensive £55 for two fish and chips and one glass of wine. We will not return for meals albeit the hotel was just ok certainly not 4star , I would say barely three. Ralph and Annette Issott Room 210 28th to 30th January

   Service was fantastic. The professional welcome and courtesy was exceptional. Food and seating excellent. I understand people wish to take their dogs on holiday, however dogs barking and a dog sitting on a seat at a table did not suit the ambience portrayed. But altogether a fine experience. I will return asap.

    Anniversary meal was very mixed. My food was good but my wife waited 20 minutes for her meal and by this point I was finished. Waitress asked if she wanted sauces and the mayo came just as she finished. Asked for the dessert menu and after waiting 15 minutes we gave up and left. Starters on the brand new menu were also unavailable even though this was only the second night if the new menu. The restaurant was as poor as the accommodation
