“Myself and husband just stayed 2 nights here, our favourite hotel. In our opinion it's Top-notch. Everything you need, from the fantastic hospitality from Sarah and her dedicated team. The comfort of our beautiful room, to the exceptional breakfast. The afternoon complementary cream tea is an extra treat. Looking forward to returning soon.”
“We’ve just returned from a 3‑night stay over the Easter bank holiday and we’re very happy with our experience. It’s a lovely hotel — small enough to feel personal and welcoming. The staff are friendly and always happy to help. Breakfast was great: fresh, tasty, and with good options. The only slight downside was the English breakfast, which felt a bit underwhelming as it lacked baked beans, mushrooms, etc. However, the avocado toast and the smoked salmon with poached eggs were excellent. The afternoon tea was a lovely touch and perfect after a long day out. Sitting by the fire in the conservatory made it even better. We also really enjoyed using the spa facilities at the sister hotel — a great addition and very relaxing. On check‑in, we were asked whether we had made dinner reservations, which we really appreciated. Thanks to that reminder, we booked our meals for the rest of the stay and ended up taking the last tables in most places, so we were grateful or we might have struggled. We stayed for 3 nights and there was no cleaning service during that time. It didn’t affect our stay, but it’s worth noting in case you’re expecting daily housekeeping. Overall, we loved our stay. For the price, you really can’t complain, and we will certainly be back.”
