A lovely warm room in a medieval looking castle. Great setting, great staff and a tasty breakfast all for a great value price.
Absolutely beautiful hotel in such gorgeous surroundings.
From the drive up to the car park, the walk through the walled gardens to the elegant reception hall everything blew us away. Then we got to the room and once again our expectations were met and exceeded. What a beautiful room we had (304). Sumptuous bedding on what could only be described as huge and lovely decor throughout.
All staff were amazingly attentive and enthusiastic. Beautiful food on the brassiere and then had some time in the wine cellar bar. Breakfast was the finishing touch to the night away and again was incredibly delicious.

Really enjoyed it, room was nice and breakfast was very good as well.
Had afternoon sandwiches at the Brassiere and then ate at the 1851 in the evening.
Wine cellar bar was very nice as well.
Will visit again.
