I stayed in one of the newer renovated rooms. It was very clean and comfortable. Loved the rainfall shower. My only issue is that I wish there was sheer blinds or tinted windows as you can see right into people’s rooms when the blinds are up (majority of rooms are on ground level).

Beautiful grounds good for walking. Good GF options at breakfast, convenient but not worth the extra cost. Older property but well maintained.

Really disappointing stay at the Mercure. I have stayed there three times in the past six months, this was by far the worst and I will choose another option in the future. The room was smelly, it was musty when we arrived, there was no option to open the only window to get any fresh air. The skirting boards were damaged and coming off from the wall near the bathroom, making me question if there was a mould issue. The bathroom had a very bad odour coming from I assume the drains. We closed the bathroom door overnight but it was extremely unpleasant to shower in. The shower grout had mould. We arrived late at night and were checking out before 7am so it was not worth raising these issues to swap room at that point of the night. The grounds are beautiful but the rooms leave a lot to be desired.

The location is very good, near to everything, the staff were very friendly and helpful and the room was of good size and bed was very comfortable. The room was clean and tidy. The bathroom needs an uplift and there is enough space to make the shower standalone and modern. The buffet breakfast options were very poor and minimal especially compared to last time we stayed here and for that reason we will not be coming back again.
