5. I loved the breakfast that the hotel provides in the lobby, it has everything you need to set you up for the day (although I had to avoid the pastries until after the wedding) :-)The cheese and wine on offer each evening (except Sunday) is a great touch and was a brilliant pre dinner treat for us and our guests.

6. I am a VERY picky traveller and often don't like staying in hotels due to the hassle of treading the minefield of avoiding bad service and poor accommodation; I researched hundreds of hotels and read thousands of reviews when deciding where to stay for my special holiday.

8. I mention the 'look you in the eye' part because there are plenty of places you go that the staff will avoid eye contact for fear that you may actually expect them to do something for you.

9. I also explained that I am a small business owner and avoidable expenses like this are very painful to a start-up.

10. Wine in the evening was odd (avoid the sherry coloured Chardonnay) but provided a great late afternoon snack.
