One guest shared: “Flawless stay. This is an extremely good hotel.
“The staff are excellent—polite, confident and very efficient. Our room was very comfortable and had sumptuous views.
“The decor is very well done—good to see a blend of classic country house and more modern artwork and colours. Breakfast was very good. We will be back.”
On the other hand, a three-star review reads: “I guess it depends what you like. This is a grand old mansion which was converted to a hotel.
“But the old seems to be a theme. Are squeaky floors old and quint or just annoying?”
Another satisfied guest shared: “The hotel is absolutely beautiful, the staff attentive and the food was just amazing. I can thoroughly recommend dinner.
“It was really special. Breakfast was lovely too. Some lovely choices. Thank you all for making our stay perfect.”
