I was thoroughly enchanted by this hotel, old in history, but modern staff and service. The friendliness of the staff was truly appreciated. The opportunity to rest and socialize in a building of such historical warmth was truly a pleasure. Brian Gordon Sinclair Playwright

Absolutely amazing hotel. From arrival to departure the experience is exceptional. Such a relaxing time spent over a couple of days. Staff are friendly, professional and efficient without being intrusive. Rooms, food and service impeccable. The courtesy tour in a Bentley is an added bonus. There is a selection of comfortable areas to relax within the hotel community areas as well as a charming little pub worth a visit within the site.

As always , the hotel is wonderful. The only downside I found is the little extra's or no longer available (for example - Toiletries are no longer given in the rooms). These little extra made the whole stay more special.
