Really nice place

The room was very nice and clean, a bit warm but with the window open there was a nice breeze. The swimming pool is very nice, heated at the right temperature to be pleasant but not too hot for a swim. Thw building and garden are great.

6/10 Good

Lovely setting and clean accomodation. Good location. Helpful advice re places to eat.
Jonathan, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Nice place waste of resources with the small soap bars that get thrown away after one use. Not great for the environment. Only one bath towel with no face/hand towel and no shower gel. Lucky, I always bring my own!! Reception person was lovely. Hairdryer was broken in my room and she dealt with me immediately and was very welcoming and friendly
Khrys, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Quality stay and using quaint pubs to eat

Beautiful grounds & Room. It’s a perfect place to stay. Re evening meal this is from local pubs in the area. From quaint local country pubs (20 min walk) or a pizza / restaurants in a new very posh housing complex (10 mins). Sainsbury’s also in complex too. I’ll be staying again.
Richard, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Lovely place to stay, the rooms and grounds are fabulous, a little disappointed there wasnt a bar with comfy seating to relax in after check in... and although it was stated in small print that check in doesnt open until 4pm its actually the whole hotel doesnt open until 4pm which is rather inconvenient if you arrive early after a long drive...that being said bed linen pillows and duvet all really luxurious so definately recommend for a good nights sleep. With regards to the £5 parking fee we had to search around for a member of staff to try to pay this and after finding the only member of staff around (the chef Darren) and him making 2 telephone calls to no avail he concluded our parking fee was included in our room rate?...strange set up but overall a lovely nights stay
