Pros:

The Kings suite was amazing. The bed was so comfortable. The kitchenette was useful, as was the separate seating area. The bath in the bedroom was a delight. The candles in the room were a nice touch. The decor was classy. Overall we loved our stay. Thank you

Strange place
Pros:

The grounds and shared areas are fantastic and the room is fine but the bed was truly ridiculous and something you'd expect to find in a 1990s hostel in Eastern Europe, not a hotel meant for businesspeople.

It was two single beds mashed together but one was super firm and the other so broken and saggy that you sunk to the floor, so of course if you tried using the whole bed, half your body was up high and the other half down low, with an uncomfortable seam that felt like you were sleeping over a bar.

And the shower was so scalding hot (no matter what setting) that it was unusable. I had to soap up with ice cold water and then quickly rinse during the 20 seconds the water transitions from cold to boiling.

Weird place. Sometimes you feel stately and elegant and other times you feel like it should have cost £10.

Also strange to call the room an "Exclusive Apartment" - it was fine, and I recognize that European room sizes are significantly smaller on average, but "Exclusive Apartment"? There wasn't even a basic chair.

Pros:

An amazing property with even gorgeous surroundings! We had a lovely and peaceful stay at Willingham House. The room was clean, comfortable, and had everything we needed. The setting is quiet and charming. The staff were kind, humble and welcoming, which made the experience even better. A great little spot if you’re looking for some quality rest. I’d happily stay again anytime! You can get to London in about an hour, and Cambridge is just around the corner when driving. A wonderful place to stay at, genuine English! Great pubs and restaurants nearby! Thank you very much for having us! I just couldn’t ask for more! :)
