    I loved it so much I’m definitely going back soon.

    I was taking my black and white spaniel called Jess and joining 4 other ladies and dogs. It was absolutely brilliant, a friendly welcome, dog dish, plastic mat and treat for Jess in the room.

    Nothing, all good for me. Some people would need a lift if upstairs but they do have some downstairs rooms.

    Perfect place for a dog family!

    The staff were all super friendly and helpful. The garden was a great place to have a drink from the bar before walking through the grounds to the beautiful river. My kids and dog had a great time wading in the river, building dams and skimming stones. Our dog was made to feel very welcome (including a sausage at breakfast!).

    Nothing.

    Comfortable for an overnight stay

    Spacious and comfortable room, friendly staff, very good breakfast and evening meals

    The ambience of the room was very much dog friendly - would have been nice to have the option of a pet-free room for the price
