Very comfortable room, with lovely toiletries and more than enough tea/coffee for our short stay. Shower was powerfully and loads of hot water. Bathrobes are a lovely touch and bath towels were big too! Food was delicious, the full English definitely hit the spot.

Had a lovely warm welcome and explained everything clearly upon arrival. Room was in the main building and had so much character. Bathroom was huge and stylish. Breakfast was good on the whole and checkout was easy.

Very nice breakfast. A few age-related areas of wear and tear in the room (mould, cracks etc) but to be expected of an old property. Dinner menu was excellent.

The staff are always very welcoming and accommodating here, and the food is lovely. Perhaps some of the rooms are looking tired??... Or conversely is it just patina 😇... Which ever way you look at it, they are always clean, comfortable beds and pillows, and plenty of tea, coffee, hot chocolate and biscuits in the room... Thank you staff for another enjoyable few nights stay...👍
