This hotel is the goal standard. Management from other hotels should come and visit it. From beginning to end the service engagement with well informed and genuinely welcoming. It’s a very interesting historical setting. When they say they are dog friendly, they genuinely are.

Doing their best

Beautiful looking hotel in a stunning setting. The rooms were comfortable and the breakfast was very nice. Bedrooms and bathroom were very clean and comfortable. The communal areas could do with sprucing up, some of the decor is a bit dated and the carpets are grubby, if they could get that right then they would be a potential big hitter in the premium country house sector which is full of high quality accommodation
