Fabulous retreat for a few days
Absolutely loved the hotel, food was excellent, drinks not over priced. Everyone very friendly. Stayed in the Honeymoon suite which was adorable (with all it's little secrets!) Great pool, quite pricey treatments, so didn't have any. Possibly would have liked a Jacuzzi. Massive bathroom in our room, could put in a large Jacuzzi bath for 2 in there. Loved the history too. Visited in the Winter, would love to revisit in the Summer to enjoy the grounds more and tennis court.
Lovely peaceful location
I nice hotel. Albeit a little tired in places. Lovely staff. Good menus and tasty food just need a little TLC in places
A mixed bag
This place has the potential to be wonderful and I am sure it will be once the refurbishment is completed. The meal was very good, nicely presented and our waiter charming and attentive. We were unhappy with the room and it was a busy weekend but sitting with coffee by the log fire was delightful, and finding some spare and available wellington boots for a walk the next morning a lovely touch. Very impressive was senior management's response to feedback. I will go back once the work is done - but not before.
If you go - and it is in a gorgeous spot not far from the RSC at Stratford - talk through which room you are being allocated and avoid the ones on the top floor..
Second time at this Hotel, not disappointed, very good.
Excellent service and quality of food in restaurant. Spa facilities are good but ladies changing room needs refurbishment.
Excellent location and provision for friends' get together.
Very relaxing break
Beautiful building and grounds with a quiet relaxing atmosphere. Staff were very helpful and friendly and ready to join in conversation with us. Enjoyed our stay immensely and would be happy to return in the future.
