Slightly underwhelmed.
Pros:

Room was spacious , with a really nice bathroom, breakfast was very nice, good views from the dining room.

Cons:

We were expecting a room with a glass wall overlooking a beautiful view, we didn't get this, in fact they only have 2 rooms as pictured on their website, and one of these was out of action. Diner was high quality but for some reason we were limited in our choice of menu, and then discovered that the next table were offered a wider choice of meal. It was a special celebration weekend for us and so we were hoping for top notch, unfortunately we got a couple of notches down from that.

A really great place to stay with gardens and views.
Pros:

The coach house rooms have an amazing view across the valley; the gardens are lovely

Cons:

The dinner service is quite formal - we liked it, but if you want a casual dinner this won't be the right place for you.

Will definitely come again.
Pros:

Great location for our trip and breakfast.
