Second time I’ve stayed here - Lovely hotel rooms - done to a high spec. I like the fact they ask if you want tea & a kettle, then leave tea pigs of your choice and a funky Bodum kettle. Upon check in you get a dinky bottle of milk ! Nice little touches like that and slow gin in a fancy decanter and shot glasses in your room ! Always clean throughout! The food in pub/restaurant is delicious, highly recommend the beef masaman curry! The staff are attentive, friendly, polite and very clued up on wines and service is always great!

Our preference is The Paddocks rather than the main building. But the beds are comfy in all rooms.

We stayed here over a long weekend with a large group, including children, and had an excellent experience. The staff were outstanding! Max, in particular, went above and beyond to make sure everyone was well taken care of. The level of service was exceptional. The rooms were comfortable and spacious and well maintained, and the food was excellent. We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to others.

Fabulous, we will definitely be back again! Room was wonderful, staff are super friendly and the place was beautifully decorated for Christmas. If I have one complaint, I do not like dogs, particularly large ones in a restaurant.
