9.6/10 Exceptional! (144 reviews)
A lovely stay at this hotel. Highlights were the staff and the breakfast service (charming and old school). The room was decent, though parts of the hotel looks slightly worn (the stairwells), but nothing a lick of paint would not fix; would stay again. The grounds looked impressive.
