Great Dinner, both food and service. Location was stunning

Dinner - the cooking was exceptionally varied, tasty and good and spoiled us for the rest of the holiday. There is a table d'hote 4 course menu at 7pm each day under the current crisis. There were perhaps a little too many guests for the Saturday evening for my liking but everything is done in a COVID-secure manner and all staff were using face coverings and hand sanitization.

everything lovely hotel and great staff - very polite and professional. We will 100% return to this hotel when we visit again.

The dinner was fantastic, especially the ravioli appetizer.

It’s a lovely Edwardian house on a raise looking down the valley. The living room is comfortable, homely and warm. Staff were great.

Breakfast was excellent. Dinner was excellent, however, there was too much fish for me on the menu, over which there was no choice, but this is understandable. I had expected a bigger room, nevertheless it was comfortable and clean. The lounge area was lovely, the views fabulous and the fire, real.

The room was cool and tables were placed apart. The food and beverages at breakfast were very good and nice and hot. The waiters/waitress was very attentive. Water was provided at dinner service and topped up when the glass was getting empty.

Meals excellent. Beautifully presented by knowledgeable staff. Room spotless. Quite compact but very comfortable. Hiccups with heating, lighting immediately remedied.

Gr8 location, room a bit small but all in all good value.

Lovely spa bath in the room. Toiletries were good and smelled delicious. Breakfast was nice too. Staff friendly and helpful.
