What a lovely place to stay, old country house with plenty of garden / woodland walks immediately outside. Staff were friendly and very accommodating. Great value for money.

very nice old manor house and rooms with high ceilings although rooms were a little dated and bed mattress was past its use by date. Also probably chose the wrong night to stay with a lively wedding going on but I suspect that will be a common experience staying here and probably the hotel is not a best bet for a quiet evening.

We stayed there for a wedding that took place at their venue, the room although “deluxe” felt more like a standard room. The sheets looked worn out and the shower room floor could be cleaner like the rest of it was.
It was good to have a coffee machine and tea supplies in the room.

There is beautiful parkland around the property and friendly and helpful staff. I was a little disappointed with the lack of menu options available in the afternoon. The bedrooms and hotel are fabulous and very comfortable. I would absolutely stay there again.
