Pros:

El lugar y el edificio, muy bonitos

Cons:

No hay ascensores y nos tocó la última habitación de un ala; un poco incómodo, la verdad.
Más de 300 pasos hasta el desayuno.

Absolutely exceptional stay. Would love to go back.
Pros:

Stunning location in the middle of Ashdown Park. Gorgeous grounds. Spacious rooms. Lovely staff. Exceptional breakfast. Toddler loved swimming pool (hours were really generous).

Cons:

The food in the casual restaurant wasn’t great - a shame as I really wanted to eat all my meals at the hotel. Lots of delicious options in area though. Pool is just indoors which is fine but outdoor pool addition would be great for summer time.

Relaxing and comfortable
Pros:

Beautiful hotel with magnificent views. The staff were friendly and helpful, rooms exceptionally clean and spacious. The only complaint was that the taps in the bathroom both ran hot! The breakfast was really good and a late dinner via room service was great. Would stay here again to take advantage of the spa facilities.

Cons:

The hot and cold taps in the bathroom both ran hot water!
