Absolutely beautiful setting for a wedding with fantastic staff and exceptional food
Pros:

Food was absolutely amazing, room’s were beautiful. Definitely recommend for food alone.
Work being done on gardens which look as though they are going to be amazing when finished.

Cons:

Were there as wedding guests so was exceptionally busy at breakfast next morning. Was a bit disorganised at getting seated but this was as much down to guests as staff
