Me and my husband really enjoyed our stay here. The place is so lovely and clean and the staff are nice and friendly. The food was kovely
Would love to return.
On arrival could have done with better signage as to where to park as we ended up parking at Forbidden Corner. Also not easy to find Reception and when we did find there was no-one there for 10 mins. Room nice, dressing gown and slippers nice touch. Had evening meal in the bar which was ok and staff were attentive. Meals on the Sunday finished at 5 and bar closed which was inconvenient. We were informed no staff on site again until Wed. We couldn’t boil kettle Mon morning as electric went off but luckily we finally managed to find a housekeeper who sorted the electrics and brought us some fresh milk (milk had gone off). So all in all a mixed bag really hence only an average score.
We absolutely loved our stay. The staff were so friendly and couldn’t do enough for you (without being over bearing). The whole place was spotless, the food was impeccable and it was very dog friendly. We wish we could’ve stayed longer!

I can’t fault this place. Very friendly and helpful staff, amazing food, beautiful room. Looking forward to our next stay.
One of my favourite places to stay! Beautiful countryside. Lovely comfortable, characterful rooms with horse racing theme!
Friendly staff, and excellent freshly cooked breakfasts made with locally sourced ingredients. Plenty of parking. We stayed on a Tuesday when the main restaurant is closed, but enjoyed our evening meal at the White Goose Pizza Co. which is only minutes walk away.
Room, breakfast and service all very good. Site difficult to find if you are not familiar with the area. Using the postcode in the sat nav wasn't a good idea, better to use the signs for the forbidden corner which is on the same site.
Beautiful setting. Spacious rooms. Felt very pampered! Little luxuries like dressing gown and slippers as well as toiletries, tea/coffee etc. Friendly staff. Highly recommend.
Not easy to find if you follow SatNav. Better to follow directions provided. Very pleasant situation in beautiful countryside. Staff were great, Room was good and reasonably comfortable but we fail to see how it qualified to be DeLux. Just little things would make a huge difference, For instance TV was mounted too high on the wall and therefore not comfortable to watch. Lighting was gloomy. Shower needed a grab rail being an over bath arrangement. Food was a bit of a let down, I started with scallops which were accompanied by a sauce which certainly didn't compliment them I followed this up with Halibut which was excellent. My wife had lamb which again was accompanied by a dominating sauce which if any thing didn't compliment the dish. Overall we had a pleasant couple of days away in superb surroundings. Would we go again possibly not.
Absolutely amazing, the best hotel in England. Beautiful rooms, surrounding countryside breathtaking. The restaurant and food beyond your expectations. Something that makes the hotel particularly special are the quality of the staff. Nic who is front of house amazing.
What a wonderful stay. Room absolutely gorgeous and with everything you could require even a fridge. Wide range of hot beverages to choose from. So clean and warm. The hotel restaurant was amazing, from the food to the wonderful friendly staff. Really liked the open fires and real Christmas trees made it very special.
