Loved the room decor and the cute little touches like the bow on the toilet paper and the towels folded like flowers. The grounds are gorgeous, the staff outstanding, and the building itself so beautiful.

Very nice hotel, but had no sleep what’s so ever with what I encountered in my room 106 to what I can say was the most scariest think I’ve ever encounted. I believe if something is supposed to have been or people have had this same issue should be told to customers. Not a very nice experience, some people will say I’m mad but what I seen, felt and encountered will stay with me for the rest of my life

Staff was AMAZING! We stayed in the Castle Suite which is a gorgeous and spacious room. It has a huge bathtub! It also has a door that leads to the garden. The ponies were a beautiful site from our room. The grounds are spectacular.

I don't think I'm the desired patron for this establishment. If you're a couple planning to do nothing but stay on property, it might be a great fit. But as a traveler who arrived by train, nothing was convenient about my stay. Lucas at the bar was wonderful. Rest of the staff were incredibly dismissive. Ended up checking out before sun up because I couldn't even get a cup of coffee. Kettle in my room had water, no clue from where or how long it had been there. But when I told staff they didn't even try to accommodate me. Just ignored me. Again probably great for some. Wasn't even passable for me.

No problem with getting a parking space, very friendly and helpful reception welcome, room was gorgeous, tastefully done and full of little personal touches. Nice and clean. A big and very comfortable bed. We have stayed at a number of UK hotels (10+) this year and this is one of the few we are planning to return to.
