"What a beautiful setting and absolute gem of a building. Great staff with fabulous sense of humour. Every window has such lovely views you can’t quite believe you’ve found such a quiet spot. I won’t spoil the secret for other visitors but finding that extra little place in the woods made my visit. Such a special little extra.
The shared spaces are all large, airy and well maintained. I loved the windows, the staircase and the furniture. I appreciate the upkeep of something so old takes a great deal of money to keep in tip top condition, so new carpets must be diverging that happens over time. Our room was a bit tired, but then we didn’t pay much for our stay so I wasn’t disappointed at all. I just worry that if you did pay a lot you would want a refurbished room without scuff marks or broken lampshades. Things happen and wear and tear is normal but just those little things need maintaining to make everyone feel looked after, and aren’t too expensive to replace.
All in all we loved our stay. Stuart was a legend. He handled the burnt toast beautifully. The walks by the river and through the wood were my highlight."
