This is a grand place to stay. Spectacular hotel and gardens. However my room was a good walk away from reception, long corridors and steps. Healthy, but takes time. Excellent Concierge service will happily deliver and return luggage for you though. Lovely room, triple aspect, very peaceful.

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

Absolutely beautiful place with stunning views and amazing architecture. Breakfast is brilliant- huge variety of cooked (to order) food as well as continental buffet. Staff are helpful and friendly. Only cons are 1) location - be prepared for the narrow country lanes!! But seriously you may struggle to get phone service, food delivery and nearest taxi will be 20 mins away 2) no aircon - we went in September so not really an issue but can imagine this to be a problem in summer. 3) Room service - no menu, limited availability and takes ages However these weren’t huge issues annd overall we really enjoyed our stay and found our way around the limited issues mentioned above. Would definitely stay again.
