This was a surprise from my husband, for our 25th wedding anniversary. The hotel is delightful, has a relaxed atmosphere, the staff were very friendly and nothing was too much trouble. We were given a brief tour of the hotel and taken to our room which was tastefully decorated. There was a ‘cat’ on the bed, which you had to ‘put out’ if you wanted the turn down service – I thought this was a lovely idea.
I was a little apprehensive of the Michelin starred restaurant, I am quite a fussy eater
and thought it might be pretentious. Well I was wrong! We chose the 7-course taster menu with wine pairing and when I asked if a couple of items could be changed, it was not a problem and I was given other options. Each beautifully prepared course was explained and the sommelier described the wines chosen for each course.
Breakfast was superb – lots of choice. We would certainly recommend this hotel and would definitely return.

Stayed here for the weekend in the lake house. The lake house itself only has 6 bedrooms that are very large and decorated in a relaxed comfy cottage style with high quality finishes and little luxuries. The pool outdoor hot tubs and sauna are nice and private (although at times you feel as if you are staying in someone else’s home, if that’s not for you then consider staying in one of their lodges) because it only caters for 6 rooms you feel like you have the whole place to yourself. The lake house is nestled on its own private lake set in acres of land which make for beautiful walks. They offer a valet parking service. Its a mile away from the main hotel so they drive you up to the Michelin star restaurant. The restaurant itself is decorated in a similar style to the lake house and the food is beautiful. We will be returning.
