Everything! Christine was a charming hostess who did everything possible to make you feel welcome at her home. The individual rooms were charming, comfortable and well equipped. The breakfast was amazing with individual orders wonderfully catered for and additional extras such as bowls of fruit and special jams. There was so much character to the house and a very personal touch to our visit. A reservation for dinner at an Italian restaurant nearby was kindly made by Christine and we enjoyed a very good meal.

We enjoyed everything. Don't stay here though if you are used to standard hotel rooms etc! This is different and much better for it - in our view!

Beautiful property, period features and so many antiques. Every room was very impressive. Most comfortable bed ever experienced in a hotel. The grounds were well maintained and ideal for my dog, Peggy. The welcome we received from our host Phil including a tray of tea, a chat about our needs, he was genuinely interested in us as guests, we immediately relaxed in such beautiful surroundings. Phil also cooked a breakfast to die for…at a time convenient to us. Would recommend this hotel to friends & family. Thank you Phil.

Entrance was confusing, it was at the back of building, possibly signage to advise where reception was located would ensure clarification.

Hardly dare say this but this place is truly peaceful, tranquil and amazing. You can relax as soon as you get here with the personal greeting, cup of very fresh tasting tea in sweet old china, with lots of flavour and just the whole place is very pleasing. We have stayed here before and could not wait to come again. It is a lovely grand old building with very tastefully furnished rooms. The huge bath is divine to aching bones after hard drives in our Carver Ones. :) All the food is locally sourced from their own gardens and animals and you just cant get fresher foods than these. Fresh strawberries. Own made on site jam not some mass produced stuff with their name on it, this is the real thing. You could be the new king staying here. The bed is exceptionally comfy so you dont want to get out of it. Clean crisp white sheets and pillows that negate the need to bring your own. Its lovely and we will be coming back here again.

The bedroom door sometimes would not open as the catch stayed where it was on the very old great door and old door handle just like it did last stay. As we had nothing of great value except ourselves I was leaving my door slightly open but hubby decided to close it. We nearly had to phone for help like last time but then we magically got the door open. It was an adventure and it wouldnt put me off coming here. Wish they did dinner but i dont know if they would be as relaxed doing that. The owners here made us bookings at the local Italian and we already knew it was good. The prices everywhere in this area are very very reasonable. We had a lovely meal. I was very sorry that we only had one night to spare here on our car rally. I would love to stay longer next time.

Everything! Hospitality was fantastic, Phil could not have been more helpful, he was extremely thoughtful and very informative on the local area and the farm. We had tea/biscuits and a roaring log fire in the lounge on arrival and we also able to bring our elderly parents in for afternoon tea on one of the days of our stay. The bedroom was amazing, huge comfortable bed and the biggest bathroom we have ever seen with a huge bath and rainfall shower. The biomass fired heating system ensured a very cosy room and lots of hot water. Breakfast was also excellent. Fresh fruits, yoghurt and cereals, fruit juice and coffee and also a full English breakfast or variation of and toast with jam/marmalades. Everything was cooked beautifully and the sausages were locally sourced. It was all delicious. We chose this venue as it was dog friendly and close to my parents and given the wonderful experience and excellent value for money we certainly plan to return.

Nothing

Philip the owner was great very personable and friendly and informative. He was so good he set up the rugby match from the internet on the TV in my room. Breakfast orders were taken the evening before and the home cooked breakfast was perfect with their own homemade sausages excellent The room was great with a large comfortable bed a big walk in shower and a large modern bath All in all it was a very pleasant say in wonderful settings

Even though it. Was only a short distance from the town. It had the feeling of being miles from everywhere,it was very relaxing and restful

A fabulous Georgian home which was owned by the present owner and previously her mother. It is very much lived in and elegantly furnished. You get to enjoy the house and the extensive grounds. The breakfast is superb. The host welcomes you into her home as if you are a friend and she wants you to enjoy it. It is truly an exceptional experience. We have stayed at so many hotels which have disappointed on so many levels. This was a fabulous experience. Our little Westie was made most welcome. We cannot recommend this experience strongly enough. Nick and Debby Hughes

Until your first visit it is a little difficult to find

Outstanding place you are made to feel welcome as soon as you walk through the door the owner Christine made us a cup of tea as soon as we walked in, she goes above and beyond to look after you the room was both modern and it also took you back in time. Breakfast was good with a good selection and another good thing is you can a time slot and she takes your order the night before, will defiantly return.

N/A

So welcoming, fresh pot of tea at the ready when we arrived taken in the lounge area. Christine such a lovely host nothing was too much trouble. The grounds wonderful area to let our dog have a run around with Christine's two spaniels and knowing she is in safe surroundings. Our room was very nice with so much space, didn't have a shower but a lovely roll top bath with shower attachment which was adequate. Fresh milk in the room for making tea/coffee and biscuits everyday. Breakfast wow filled us up for the day. Thankyou so much for a lovely stay, we will be back.

Absolutely nothing

Large beautiful mansion with countryside surroundings. Staff couldnt do enough for you. Everything thought of for an enjoyable stay. Great breakfast. Large spacious room and ensuite. Great place for a romantic getaway with log fires and cosy lounge, Great place to hold a wedding or health retreat as lots of other buildings attached to property. For all its grandeur dogs are welcome. We had a ball.

There was nothing to dislike.

Nice apartment. Walking in lovely grounds by river and seeing happy pigs was was great. Nice to be accompanied by Max the springer spaniel on our walk. Warm and spacious apartment with two closed bedrooms, each with a double bed and single bed.

Lighting in the kitchen area could be improved. A shower in the large bathroom would be great. A few more glasses for drinking would have been appreciated.
