I was really looking forward to staying at this hotel due to the quiet location, decor and reviews I had read. All of my expectations were surpassed and I found myself continuously delighted by small gestures, thoughtful touches and the creative imagination of the lovely hotel proprietor.
Staying in this tastefully decorated country house hotel is an 'experience' you will treasure. There is something special in the atmosphere and walls of this old Jacobean house that feels healing, restorative and comforting. Like the building wants to cuddle and comfort all who visit. If you need to get away from it all, then this may be what you are looking for; not just an attractive place with a spa, but a 'feeling'.
All of the staff I engaged with were thoughtful and intuitive in the way they attended to guests needs.
I ordered the Summer Sausage - the dish was packed with depth of flavour, a superb gravy. The restaurant caters for all dietary variations. The breakfast is the best offering I have seen in a UK hotel. They offer a wide range of healthy options, fruits, seeds and excellent cooked dishes; I had Eggs Florentine on gluten free bread. Coffee with oat milk. Breakfast included in room price.
The rooms have names. I loved the decor, rustic features, the art and treasures around the hotel. Peaceful gardens. Very comfy bed, quiet. Such thoughtful imaginative facilities for families/children. Spa facilities were clean. Guests not showering after sauna and diving in was a shame
