What a lovely hotel!
We stayed in Box Cottage, which is located near the hotel spa. Very private and beautiful accomodation. The suite consisted a sitting room, king sized bedroom, bathroom and small 'kitchen' with sink and full size fridge and tea/coffee making facilities. Great attention to detail - pint of fresh milk in the fridge and freshly laundered tea towel provided. Country-house furnishings, comfortable sofa and chairs, two televisions, large bathroom with robes, plenty of towels, toiletries.
The main hotel building is very old and interesting with lots of original portraits, lovely log fire. Staff were friendly but discreet. Grounds are beautiful, even on a very gloomy day.
We had dinner in the restaurant, which was excellent, and we felt good value for the quality of the food. Had coffee by a roaring fire in the sitting area afterwards.
We used the swimming pool and the gym, over in the spa, and again the staff were very friendy and helpful.
All areas of the hotel were clean and well maintained.
All in all a first class experience and we would certainly recommed the hotel for a special break.
