I booked an overnight stay here and was more than happy with my accomodation for the evening. The breakfast was really nice, too! Their eggs benedict were perfect. The spa and wellness centre was very good.

An exceptional 4* hotel. The staff were brilliant and went above and beyond from the moment we arrived to when we left. The deluxe room was superb, with a really comfortable bed. We felt cared for, looked after and at home in this stunning period hotel. Thank you!
