Stayed here on 29th May, whilst attending a friends wedding at Wennington Hall. I can honestly say the hospitality was second to none, breakfast was fantastic. Kevin kindly offered his services to pick us up from the venue, no matter how late we decided to stay out till and even run us back in the morning to collect our car when ready. Beds were comfy, especially after a skinful.. I couldn’t fault the stay at all, perfect location if visiting wennington hall, absolutely would stay again. Thank you for an enjoyable stay, a real gem.
