Amazing location, beautiful room and friendly staff. Only criticism would be the breakfast. I dont mind continental at all but the choice was very limited and for £20:i definitely would expect more variety.

Great Place For a Short Stay

I stayed for two nights. The staff were fantastic, really friendly and always making sure everything was ok. The room was a good size, and the bed was really comfortable. Great bathroom too. I had breakfast and dinner there. Breakfast was limited. The cafetiere had great coffee in it, but food was just some small baked pastries, a bit of cereal, and one type of ham and cheese. Dinner was a great experience though. Can highly recommend their fish pie! The wine and drinks selection was really good. Just a couple of points for improvement. 1).If arriving at night it can be difficult to understand where to go as the signage isn't easy to see. Putting lights on the signs, and then have a sign on the doors leading to the courtyard would help. 2) The room didn't have a desk to work on or drawers to put things in. There was plenty of space for something like that. The woods around the location are lovely, and I know they have plans to develop the surroundings. I'd love to go back again when the work is done as I did enjoy my stay overall.

Fine stay with nice staff.

Nice functional place to stay for a night. Room was fine and clean. Nice touches, staff were lovely and friendly also milk served in a bottle, nice pottery cups. Could be nicer by having a way to keep the milk cool, or and a coffee machine but they have Nescafé sachets. Felt like it was trying to be swanky but not quite there. Breakfast- continental was £12 and then charged extra £3 for coffee plus included £3.70 service charge for a help yourself breakfast. Breakfast was sparse and food not replenished so not much selection. Asked for yoghurt & marmalade but they didn’t have any. I don’t mind paying a service charge ( they bought more toast when I asked) but surprised that coffee wasn’t included with breakfast !

Nice early check in. Walking a mile to work mainly through the beautiful grounds of what was a massive estate. The rooms were very nice and comfortable. The on site restaurant served an excellent selection of food. This hotel has only been open for 3 weeks but I’m sure it’s going to be a massive success! Great location!

Looks like it could be brilliant. However my need for an accessible room was not passed to the hotel (they said) - so I didn’t get one. I arrived in the dark and it was really difficult to find my way to the hotel itself - there hadn’t been any advance information about the barrier or where the intercom (obscured by foliage) was. As a disabled person it was difficult to get out of the car and read the notice on the barrier (which didn’t give info about the intercom - just gave a phone number!) Hotel signs to reception almost impossible to read in the dark. Security (Lucas? On quad bike) were great in directions and help. Reception (Luke) also good. No accessible parking spaces available or visible. Fairly selfish guests blocking car park exit (chatting) and making it difficult for morning arrivals and leavers. I wish there’d been written information in room about the interesting history of the property. No info given (but I worked it out) about Internet access or restaurant menu and facilities.
