Quite location in the hills . Easy parking. A nice building but showing it's age however the grounds are delightful and well maintained. The salad I had was fine. Overall an ok stay but not one I will remember.
Nice hotel in a lovely setting and friendly staff. It was extremely hot weather when we stayed. The hotel provided fans to cool us down which was very thoughtful and useful. They also set us up a ‘dog friendly’ table for breakfast away from the other guests. Again, very thoughtful. It was appreciated. Thanks. We’ll be back!
My friend and I stopped here overnight on our way to Cornwall. The area is beautiful and it's a nice old estate/manor. The rooms were clean, but a little dated. It must've been a wedding party that stayed overnight, as we heard all of them in the courtyard and hallways at 7 am, so the walls are extremely thin. Fine for a one night stay.
Impressive building reached via a badly rutted track. Nice big room but on that night in particular aircon would have been welcome rather than one fan. Restaurant food seemed basic and uninspired, and the morning breakfast had only a single staff-member battling heroically to keep up with orders and maintain the buffet. Staff were very friendly but unlikely to stay again.

An interesting place and not necessarily in a positive way. The, very few, staff working were lovely and very accommodating, and the food decent but goodness me does the place need an overhaul. Dated, scruffy and not on my list to return to. Sad really as it could be a very beautiful desirable place to stay if time and money were spent on it.
