I stayed for four nights in early Oct. The hotel is a former Georgian house with a small 1990s extension built favourably to match the original house which has once been the home of James Bond composer John Barry. There are three courtyards, the centre yard having the appearance of an old farm yard, cobbled stones and many bushes and trees. I stayed in the Scarborough Room, a pleasant and spotless room with comfortable bed, coffee table and chairs and a desk with TV and hot drinks facilities. The bathroom was ample however shower head could benefit from replacement. The water was always very hot. The hotel ground floor benefits from a large reading room (with vibes of Downton 😄) and two reasonably sized dining rooms, both of a pleasant and classy decor. There is also a bar lounge area which also doubles as a breakfast room. The decor however reminds me of a late 80s/early 90s wine bar. Pleasant but perhaps worthy of update. The breakfast options are very good, ranging from cereal, to full English and other quality cooked items. Although my intention was not to eat in every night, I soon changed my mind after the first evening meal which was superb. I choose Chicken Supreme which was fantastic, as were all other meals. There is however a 7.5 per cent discretionary service charge. The staff are very smart, polite, welcoming and a credit to the hotel. Would I stay again? Definitely
