The reception staff were most welcoming however 3 niggling items. 1) I telephoned for some milk to make tea. After two requests and half an hour, I went to reception to collect myself. 2) We left on a day trip. Although we passed reception, neither us or another departing motorist were told that we would need a special coin to open car park barrier. We waited and waited , expecting a camera response. Eventually returned to reception for a coin. 3) We were given a reserved parking space for first night. After that night our reserved sign for the further two nights was removed.
