Lots of parking available if you have a car. There was a resident peacock which was nice to see and say hello to every morning/evening. The hotel is massive so it takes a few twists and turns to get to your room but nothing wrong there. The view is nice from the rooms and courtyard is good to walk around in - breakfast was excellent every morning.
