Stunning Hotel in an idyllic location
Pros:

An absolutely beautiful Hotel, in a stunning location. We stayed in the stables and the rooms had a lovely nod to its history with horse themed decor. The gardens are immaculate and definitely should be on anyone's to do list while they are there.

Beautiful place
Pros:

We spent one night at Elsenham Hotel and it was such a lovely stay. The estate is gorgeous, with a stunning historic main building that feels straight out of a countryside postcard. The staff were super friendly, and breakfast was genuinely delicious. A perfect little country‑estate escape.

Cons:

Only dog frindly (not pet friendly)

Venue good, staff good and food is excellent.
Pros:

Lots of history within the building to look at as well as nice grounds to walk around in.

Cons:

It would be a good idea to remove outside seating away from the dinning room doors. We had to experience other guest smoking outside by the doors which were open due to being a hot day which isn’t nice when you’re trying to enjoy your food.
