    The bar area could be more comfortable - fewer dining tables and chairs, more armchairs

    The building, the location, and most of all the really excellent cooking

    Refined luxury in a beautiful location

    We don't eat meat, which can be tricky, so always check the menus before we book a hotel. The sample menu on the website had several vegetarian options on the dinner menu, so we were a bit disappointed to see only one starter and one main course option on the night we dined. However, the lovely staff member who served us, did go to the kitchen and the chef offered a couple of extra veggie choices, but they felt like a bit an afterthought so we declined. This is nit-picking though, because the Mushroom Stroganoff we did order was so good that my husband used his dessert spoon to (noisily) scrape the extra sauce off the plate.

    This hotel offers refined luxury but with a lovely homely, cozy feel. It's a little bit quirky due to the age and location of the property, which makes it extremely charming. Everything is very good taste and I'm glad to say that there's not a horrible little UHT milk carton in sight. We adored the peacock, pea hens and guinea fowl who roam the grounds and in Summer it must be glorious to have a drink or two at one of the numerous tables set outside amongst the trees. The bed was sumptuously comfortable, although next time, we would book one of the rooms with a King-size bed, as that is what we are used to at home. The food is absolutely delicious. We had breakfast and dinner during our stay and both were exceptional. We would definitely love to come back.

    The bar area needs comfy leather sofas and armchairs. Very limited area to sit comfortably and have a drink. They have dining tables with wooden chairs in areas where there is log burners. Such a waste of space.. one area should have a proper set up for comfy sofas and chairs - pretty please. Only thing putting us coming more frequently or arranging to meet friends there for the weekend. No proper place to socialise.

    Nice ambience and flexible hosts.

    Dinner bed and breakfast on our way to Cornwall. Relieved that are a dog friendly hotel as it was below zero centigrade last night and the dogs will have had to stay in the car. The chef is excellent and provides interesting food.

    There is no shampoo or conditioner provided and I did not find a hairdryer

    The location is great for us - not far off the A303 but in the countryside and easy to walk our dogs without them getting filthy. The hotel itself is comfortably country - beds and sofas are very comfortable, bathrooms warm and well appointed, and the food is excellent.

    Didn't like the hogs pudding being replaced with polenta sausage !

    The bed, pillows and duvet were all well above a three star hotel. Evening meal and breakfast were great and good quality ingredients. We were in a garden room which was large and plenty of space.
