"I'd love to be able to give this hotel 5 stars. It's wonderfully dog friendly, the hotel size is not too large, so you do get to know other people who stay at the hotel. The retreat area with free coffee, water and cake is a lovely touch, and whilst I didn't use it, the dog bathing and bike washing facilities looked exceptional.
The only thing that let this hotel down was the lack of air conditioning. We stayed during a heatwave, so sleeping was very difficult. There was a fan, but only a small one, which seemed quite old and dusty. It was difficult to get the fan to reach both of us in bed and the dog in his crate.
If the hotel were to get air conditioning, or even just bigger/better quality fans, I'd stay again without a moment's hesitation any time of the year."
