The Property was wonderful, especially enjoyed the courtyard rooms. However, I was at a wedding at the staff did not even offer to provide an napkin with the Hor d'oeurves. It was a pretty upscale wedding and I the catering was done in house. The food was just okay, overdone beef and duck. The Breakfast was perfect.

We stayed in a courtyard room. It was beautiful. Really warm and cosy. Beautiful bathroom with large walk-in shower. Kettle, tea, coffee,milk and biscuits provided. We had our dinner in the bar and the food was amazing as was the breakfast. The whole place is spotless. The gardens are absolutely gorgeous. We had a walk through the forest. The staff are lovely and can't do enough for you.Definitely recommend.

Lovely property and surrounding area. Just note that it’s heavily used for weddings so expect music to be heard in your bedroom until late in the evening. Staff were also very friendly and accommodating but more could be on hand when the restaurant/bar is busy to cater for the numbers.
