Guest Reviews
Clean, pretty venue, beautiful grounds, 4 poster bed, large bathroom
No spa/swimming pool, AC not working, staff variable, £30 for breakfast per person was expensive and breakfast was average, no places to lie in the sun
Beautiful property, well presented and staffed by an enthusiastic team, passionate about what they do.
Nothing comes to mind
Great food, great estate
Service was overall really poor. Our room was at the 3rd floor no lift and nobody helped us carry our suitcases. The room was advertised as having a “spa bath” and it actually had a regular bathtube. We were charged a bottle of champagne we didn’t order/drink and they took it off the bill only after complaining.
Beautiful house and grounds. Common rooms were beautiful: restaurants, bars etc. lovely to be able to sit outside comfortably. What a benefit to have the bedroom air conditioned.
Perhaps try attaching the shampoo, bath gel bottles to the wall in the shower. Once your hands are wet it was almost impossible to swivel the cap to get the contents out.
Dinner at the WellHouse was amazing.
This is a beautiful hotel in a very beautiful location, and we were blessed with incredible weather. I am giving it a 9/10, because there is some room for improvement. But, overall, our stay was lovely, and we will happily return. The staff were excellent and very friendly. I felt there was some improvement needed in terms of service training in the bar and restaurant, but I am a former hotel owner, which makes me somewhat picky. Overall, the staff were excellent, and the food in the Wellhouse was exceptional. The room was nice, and a decent size, although I felt it could have been better decorated, and the bathroom had black mould around the shower, which is always a pet-hate of mine. It is something that is so easy to keep on top of, so there is no excuse for it.
The breakfast was poor. This is my main reason for not giving a 10/10 score. I ordered scrambled eggs on toast on the first morning, which looked like slop on a plate. It was tasteless and very poorly made. Portion sizes were also disappointingly small for the price. Breakfast needs a big improvement to bring the hotel in line with other hotels at this level. As I mentioned previously, the silicon around the shower area in the bathroom was full of black mould. Cilit Bang black mould remover is a housekeeper's best friend. The hotel should look to invest in some and make sure it is used weekly in each room. This will remove any existing black mould, and will help to prevent any more from developing.
Just lovely!
tolle Lage, sehr ruhig gelegen.
Zimmer, Restaurant und Bar sehr schön eingerichtet, sehr geräumiges und gut ausgestattetes Bad. Kleine aber sehr gute Frühstückskarte, das Essen im Restaurant Wellhouse war eine tolle Erfahrung.
Fenster müssten mal renoviert werden (Holz ist marode und Fenster schließen nicht mehr richtig .... bei Null Grad nachts etwas frisch). Etwas hellhörig (man versteht im Zimmer jedes Wort auf dem Gang)
A beautiful one night stay
In a wonderful mansion!
Fab staff , very helpful.
Would recommend
the whole experience

Everything
So clean and welcoming. Stunning views.
The lawn being cut where we were enjoying a quiet drink and no butter with me our toast at breakfast ordered for room service.
Location.lovely grounds. Dog was made to feel welcome. Very important.she loved her welcome pack!
I ate at the wellhouse. The fish was undercooked. Underwhelmed by the room for the price. Breakfast at 30gbp?? ?
Food quality and service amazing ! but on arrival Limited catering options - had to walk in the rain on the first night, I had just had an operation at the local hospital so not ideal - no proper room service as main venue was closed that night, I booked a suite to rest and there was maintenance in the next room early in the morning, door being replaced , then window cleaning later in the day - Hotel didn't seem full and I am sure that could have been ,managed better. expected a higher level of service to be honest - My amazon Delivery went to wrong place, locally - no help from reception to recover the package
Very pretty building and grounds with very well equipped rooms, very attentive staff.
The only downside to the room was a lack of a fridge
Everything was amazing!! 10/10 :)
Everything…
Proper reset from the stress of day to day life.
