Stayed here on a package for our 20th wedding anniversary and loved it. Lovely room, location and evening meal/breakfast. Very helpful friendly staff as well and cannot fault it (although a little expensive but it was a treat and worth every penny). Thanks Mark.

We went for afternoon tea and it was an absolute delight. Friendly staff, great food, excellent atmosphere and the grounds are brilliant. More importantly, the bar area is open to dogs as well which make it ideal place for the whole family. Some of us tried the burger as well and they couldn't recommend it enough. We will be visiting again very soon.

Visited only due to attendance of a funeral reception. Obviously cannot comment on rooms etc. But location and venue is beautiful. Staff extremely professional and efficient and someone always seem to be near to hand. I overheard that a wedding reception was following later that day, and have to say. It's an excellent choice. I've been fortunate to have visited many excellent venues and have to say, this easily sits comfortably amongst the best.

This really is a beautiful hotel and location. The grounds surrounding it gave me Bridgerton vibes, it’s stunning, lovely British summer feel as you walk around the area. The Room - I booked a Hotel & Spa package for 2 people for a birthday. Our hotel room was superb, the classic look to it with a gorgeous marble bathroom, only criticism regarding this was the view from our window in Room 123. The Spa - We booked for a back massage/cleanse treatment that came with our package and the therapists were brilliant, very polite, young but was as if they had decades of experience. The actual wet facilities are just too small for a hotel of that size. Green Room Restaurant - The 3-Course Meal was nice, the dining room was very elegant and the young waiters were very nice, friendly and attentive. I did find it a bit bizarre how I couldn’t just change a starter for a dish from the nibbles section as part of my package. Having to pay an extra amount of money for that was quite outrageous to be honest. The breakfast the next morning however was excellent. All in all a good experience, gorgeous hotel, lovely staff but you really cannot justify the price of the overall package which is a shame as I’d love to visit again.
