very nice, would stay again, a short bus ride into Cambridge.
Pros:

Food was beautiful, we ate in the bar the first night, then in the restaurant.

Cons:

There was nobody to check us out when we left. I didnt like that my bill wasnt specific to items I had ordered, only listed "bar" or restaurant. When youve spent a few days its hard to track if things are correct.

Nice experience to stay overnight
Pros:

The room was standard and relatively spacious although our bed is a bit small for 2 people. The bathroom had a shower cabin and a bath. Our window faced the major road at the distance, it added some noise but when the window was closed, it was not too disturbing. We booked room with breakfast and the breakfast was good with a range cereals, English breakfast ingredients, bakery variety.
In the evening we enjoyed free spa facilities (sauna, swimming pool), it was good but there can be busy.
The dishes for dinner in their restaurant were tasty, it is better to book a table in advance.

Cons:

Add cheese for breakfast.
It would be more convenient to have a gown for spa but only a towel is provided.

Nothing to write home about
Pros:

Location was fine

Cons:

The pool is tiny, the ‘jaccuzi’ is very dated and the whole ‘spa’ area need renovation and there are constant pools of water. Not enough loungers, Tiny changing area, room was fine, food was pleasant despite the clear lack of experience from some waiting staff ‘is a sav blanc white or red wine’. Over all the ‘hotel’ is simply that, a place for people to stay on work and relax. Calling it a spa is a stretch of the imagination. It was fine, nothing more nothing less
