Pretty but dangerous
In general, this hotel is fine - comfortable and in a nice spot next to one of the Frensham ponds.
However, my wife tried to walk down the disabled ramp the first morning of our stay. The ramp was covered in moss, with a leaky gutter above keeping it wet all day. It was like an ice rink. She slipped and almost broke her hip. I tried to help her and nearly fell myself. This is despite both of us wearing hiking boots with excellent grip. If you use the stairs, there is no issue as there was no moss on those. But ramp users either are disabled or are likely to become disabled.
We registered the accident and it was recorded in the accident register. I expected some communication afterwards, but nothing happened. We checked out the next day and still nothing. Before we left, I decided to try the disabled ramp again to see if the moss had been cleaned - it had not, as you can see on the photo and I nearly slipped again despite being very cautious.
So there you go: this is actually a nice hotel, but with the staff not fixing safety issues even after they have been pointed out, I am not sure I can recommend it at the moment. If they fix the issue and apologise properly, I might change my mind - I would have to check with the wife first though, as she is still in pain from the fall.
