We can't say enough about the property. The staff was the best! And the spa is awesome. The TV's could be updated so that guests can plug in a fire stick but other than that the place is perfect.

Love this 400 year old hotel. I have stayed here before years ago and nothing has changed, which is good. Food is still great and Spa is great way to relax for an afternoon!

Outstanding staff - friendly, helpful and fun!
Food generally very good, but not always piping hot.
Lovely premises and gardens.
Nice decor in the room - but the standard double bed too small.
Had a very enjoyable stay and would definitely return.

Lovely place
Absolutely stunning venue. Great place and facilities in a period setting.
I struggled to sleep for two reasons, the rooms were so warm and when I opened the window to cool down, the road noise was terrible. Could do with air con or climatic control but I appreciate this may be a challenge for a building that is likely listed.
