Service
Pros:

"Every staff member is professional, patient, happy and attentive."
"All the staff were friendly and welcoming and nothing was too much trouble."
Cons:
"Some of our guests were missing towels and coffee making facilities, so it would have been good to have had those basic amenities included."
"Staff could be a little more proactive for example we were sat outside and not enough chairs so guest actually having to go find and carry chairs around."
"In the main house we had awful trouble getting into our rooms the evening of the wedding, we had an emergency number to call but no answer!!!"
"Also on the down side we had no one to greet us on arrival, bit impersonal and the price of drinks astronomical."
"Expensive drinks, staff quite rude."
"Venue not very helpful, keep well away."
"Lovely time spoilt by a thief who stole gift cards with money in them, deeply upsetting the bride and groom, and families and friends."
