Very nice grounds. Very spa treatment. Decent breakfast. Room was big but didn’t feel luxurious and a bit of mold in the shower. A bit tired. e.g. curtain was hanging off last curtain hook. Service didn’t really meet 5 star. Dining experience wasn’t great. Took 15 mins to take dishes away. Probably wouldn’t go again.

Lovely, historic stay
Very unique property and lovely setting ... as a historical property, they have done a nice job of combining the comforts of modern amenities while keeping within their historical requirements. Service was slightly below average, with some well-trained staff and others going through the motions. We stayed in the Lodge and we experienced a few issues.

30th Wedding Anniversary
The staff were welcoming and helpful without intruding on our special night at this amazing hotel. It was our 30th Wedding Anniversary and far above what we could normally afford. So, made all worthwhile by staff, rooms and food.

Dissapointing... tired and not clean.
Very good evening meal, and helpful staff. But the hotel looks tired, and frankly not clean. Dust and dirty tables everywhere. I took the attached photo after "drawing' in the dust on the frame of the painting right next to our dining table. I didnt even have to rise from my seat to write in the dust.

Stunning place!
Stunning hotel with lovely staff who couldn't do enough to ensure our stay was the best. Very dog friendly and to have a beautiful room with a small patio area with private garden for the dog was amazing. Can highly recommend.
