Needs a bit of TLC both in decor and attitude!!

This place gave us the impression of being a bit run down and lacking in care and a bit stingy with extras ( I packet of biscuits in the room, I loo roll, broken toaster in breakfast room, no menu to say you could have extras like poached eggs, no condiments on tables at breakfast , bar tables not cleaned or lights on the the eating area and crumbs on the chairs! )We ate in the bar twice and both times the food was fine but you really shouldn’t have to clean your own table and chairs, turn on lights etc should you?!?! I used the pool which was nice and nicely accessible for me however the changing room floor was treacherous as it was soaking wet. There needs to be more awareness that this isn’t a place that’s suitable for people with mobility issues. Both the restaurant and the bar had steps to access them. We thought initially the receptionist wasn’t very welcoming as we stood for quite a while waiting to check in while she was talking to staff members and she gave no acknowledgment that we were waiting, not a great first impression. The room and corridors seemed dated and dark and our room had an odd smell however it was clean ( apart from stains on the carpet) and comfortable.

Rooms are dated, but clean. Towels are "well washed" could do with a good refresh throughout.

The restaurant was excellent although the service was slow as there was no Maitre d' at the door to welcome and we had to wait quite a few minutes to be seated. However, the waiter cleared a table for us efficiently upon request. The setting was perfect for our outdoor weekend: rapidly flowing river outside our window and lovely views into the valley. The room was comfortable and spacious fitting myself, my husband and grown son adequately.

The staff we interacted with were very friendly being Jill and Harry. The premises needs a lot of attention. Breakfast needs an over hall re fruit selection. Arrived mid breakfast time fruit was finished except for prunes. Ran out of common brands of whisky. I don't know if there is a manager but was unsighted whilst we were there.

It was right on the river, which was very nice. I loved that we could eat dinner there. The room was okay. I felt like it needed a good spring cleaning with cobwebs in all of the windows.
