This is a very nice place to stay and the Inn over the road is a great place to eat. The rooms and communal areas have been very tastefully decorated and it is very comfortable. Only one point, some of the rooms overlook a road which is surprisingly busy even in the middle of the night - not great if you are a light sleeper.

Country hotel set in beautiful grounds, but modern and comfortable inside, friendly helpful staff and delicious food made for a relaxing short break. This was made even more special by a large delightful room and the most comfortable bed I have ever slept on.

Beautiful little hotel! The bedrooms, and indeed the whole place, was tasteful decorated with lots of lovely touches around & about. Michael, the owner, was very welcoming & helpful & went out of his way to make sure we were looked after, even arranging some takeout breakfast as we had to be up & out first thing.
The rooms were comfortable & stylish, I had an excellent nights sleep! I was just sorry we weren’t there a little longer to take advantage of the downstairs space & well stocked...
