Lovely hotel, grounds and food

It’s a beautiful hotel with a lovely pool/spa area too. We stayed in a Treehouse Room which was lovely but 3 floors was a bit of a pain, wouldn’t stay in that room type again but happily at the hotel. Food and drink was also excellent.

Everything was excellent - from our room to the spa facilities. The breakfast was delicious - particularly the pastries! The only thing I would have liked would have been a friendlier check in. We were handed our keys with no introduction to the hotel, where to find what or when breakfast was. Apart from that - a great weekend was had!

A great stay in a wonderful place. The setting was lovely and the food brilliant. The spa was great too - but it was a shame that the staff seemed so inexperienced / unaware of how the systems worked there. Apart from this frustration, everything else was brilliant.
