Second stay at this stunning country house hotel. Yet again the staff were excellent and the food was to die for, made even better by knowing that the Head Chef had allowed his Assistant Head chef to design the menu as it was his very last night before returning back to the states. Well he did himself proud and his... More

We stayed here for a short 2 day break using a voucher deal. At no point did we feel the poor relation, the breakfast was delicious and there was plenty of choice, and the room was perfect for what we wanted, & very comfortable. We will be recommending to our family & friends.

Yes there are one or two differences from a 'chain' hotel but for me they make it beter not worse. Wouldn't it be boring if everything was always the same!? We stayed in a twin (room 12 I think), which whilst... More
