It's hard to put into words how great it was for us. We arrived early and we were welcomed with a mince pie and a smile! The room was ready so we didn't have to wait and were led by Stephanie to the Deluxe double stargazer room which was on the top floor as requested! But not recommended if you aren't able to climb 2ish flights of stairs. We found the room clean and well stocked with tea, coffee milk etc. The view was absolutely amazing! The bathroom was luxurious and clean and there was enough storage for our luggage. We had had some bad news and explained we were close to cancelling but decided it would do us good. We had told Stephanie this and he was very understanding and after a few minutes of being in the room a lovely gentleman had brought us a card and a lovely gesture to cheer us up! It worked. And thank you again for doing that. We wandered into the village after freshening up and went to several establishments. The morning after arriving we went and sat in the conservatory overlooking the gardens and river at the bottom beautiful! I had the farm house platter and my wife had poached eggs on toast both presented and tasted excellent. We had fresh pastries each also excellent. The morning after I had the same breakfast and my wife had the smoked salmon on scrambled eggs plenty of tea, coffee, juice pastries, cereal etc. We have a chargeable electric hybrid car and were able to charge at no extra cost, (as at time of writing). All in all it was the most relaxing stay, the hotel was delightful, the staff went above and beyond to make you feel welcome without being intrusive whilst on your stay. Every member of staff was so warm and friendly, in fact it was the perfect choice for us ,even being able to stroll down the river at the bottom of the garden was an added extra as you're surrounded by the most beautiful scenery.
