A fabulous couple of days.

Aubrey D, Buckinghamshire, stayed: April 2025

From the moment we arrived the welcome was lovely. All the staff were amazing, the hotel was comfortable with several small rooms with comfy sofas and beautiful views. Our bedroom was great, a huge comfortable bed, nice bathroom, a bottle of wine waiting for us and spotlessly clean. The food was fantastic. Thank you to everyone who made our stay so wonderful.
