Fabulous and stunning hotel. The hotel its self is beautiful and full of interesting historic and original features. The bedrooms are beautiful. Very spacious, clean and tastefully decorated. Lots of toiletries and beverages provided in room. Large, clean comfortable bed and good wardrobe space and lighting. It’s a large hotel so lots of walking just to get to your room, however, there are so many paintings and objects of interest to view on the way, you don’t notice. Dinner was fantastic! High praise and compliments to the Chef Martin and his team. We enjoyed first class cooking with local produce which was clearly cooked and presented with passion. The service was excellent! Nicki, and her team were very attentive, nothing was too much trouble. It was nice to learn from Nicki about how creative passionate the chefs are, particularly about using local produce. The dining areas are lovely, with open fires. It was very quiet in the hotel as it was January which we enjoyed, again we were not rushed, we were able to enjoy our dinner at our leisurely pace with some great wines. We also had access to the spa. The spa itself is quite small with a swimming pool, steam room, sauna and jacuzzis indoor and outdoor. There are loungers around the pool. Hotel guest have access to the spa from check in to check out during the open hours which is value for money, we purchased a day spa each, I’m not sure it was worth the expense as we spent little time in there with lunch and treatments so next time will probably just use the guest access. What we can recommend is the treatments in the spa! Outstanding! My husband had a massage and stated it’s one of the best he has ever had! I also enjoyed a massage followed by a facial and I would say, probably the best I’ve ever had! Well worth the money, prices are on par with other spa treatments I’ve had. This one gave us recommendations on having regular treatments and after care without the hard sell element of beauty products, which was refreshing. We have to give high praise to Connie and Chloe for outstanding massages/ treatments and will definitely book with them again! Slippers, towels and robes are provided for guests and more slippers and robes are provided in the bedrooms too! The grounds are a must see. On leaving we spent some time on a walk, exploring the beautiful garden area and lake. It’s an absolute haven for wildlife and you must look up and down! We were privileged to see red kites swooping above us! This is a wonderful hotel and one I would highly recommend for all round experience. We will definitely be returning in the summer to have another stay, sample the summer menu, explore the grounds and of course visit the spa again!
