A lively hotel let down by its restaurant.

A wonderful hotel. Let down by its Garden Room restaurant which was poor for a hotel of this standing. The Terrace dining was good.

Hotel review

Hotel lovely in great surroundings. Room clean but bathroom needed refreshing.(the door). we had dinner in the bar although a little pricey food was excellent and plenty of it. The only down side was the state of the drive with quite a few pot holes could be a problem if unsteady on your feet and not good on the car tyres.

An Enjoyable and Comfortable Stay

Down Hall was a truely beautiful hotel, very elegant and picturesque, the grounds were amazing, the hotel room was very spacious maybe the ventilation could be a litte better, but I was provided with a Fan so this aspect was addressed. Staff were very helpful throuhout my stay, and I was provided with everything I needed.
