outstanding natural beauty, ringed by mountains, this resort is an exceptionally stunning place to stay. They have blended the older historic buildings with the newer accommodations in such sympathetic manner, All of a cloth. We stayed in a spacious, comfortable 2 bedroom suite which was pristinely clean, with sumptuous bed linens, huge comfy beds, spacious living- dining room areas with fireplaces, complete with a kitchenette and all the amenities you would expect in a five star resort. Large ensuite bathrooms with separate shower and massive bathtubs, with patios overlooking the golf greens -all with a stunning mountainous backdrop. This well established historic resort is graced with a plethora of 200 year old shade trees and gorgeous long established mature gardens filled with flowers, brooks and fragrant bushes. The Millhouse restaurant has exquisite food and the other eateries have indoor and alfresco seating to enjoy the natural surroundings. The only thing we missed out on was the spa treatment appointments were fully booked though we called a week in advance and it was one of the reasons we booked into this glorious estate. Staff were friendly and helpful and the entire estate oozes luxury in a quiet understated way. Its a one of a kind diamond among gems.
