EXCELLENT REVISIT OF MANY
Pros:

The visit was the second 3 nights of the summer. Superb once again as was last year’s visits. Couldn’t fault a thing. Always have a ground floor room facing the grounds / lawns. Quality food. Staff are excellent, excelling in professionalism, courtesy and happiness. It obviously comes from the General Manager James Webb downwards. Well done to all

Lovely break from London
Pros:

The staff, food and wine is excellent! The house really is nice and has a unique style! I would definitely come back!

Cons:

It is not really up to date, however it has a good design. The very close connection to M4 makes it reachable but also minimal noisy.

Avoid
Pros:

We were due to eat in The Conservatory restaurant. This was booked as we were very excited to try your two AA rosette crafted to reflect seasonality (according to your website). Imagine my horror to discover that there is no AS rosette and there were only 5 choices of main course; three of which were beef! When we queried this we were told that the menu never changes. So, your claim of seasonality is false advertising. As usual your deception around your Aa rosette status. My advice is to avoid these charlatans.

Not as we had hoped
Pros:

We have wanted to stay here twice before but because of covid it did not happen. We were finally here to stay.

We were greeted warmly and check in was smooth. The Lavinia Fenton suite was lovely, in the main house but it had no air conditioning which I felt should be mentioned on their website. As there were heatwaves it was very uncomfortable to sleep. The windows are secured so they only open a tiny way like 5cms so getting a breeze was pretty impossible. We did get 3 fans but they really didn't do much.

Food isn’t very good in the restaurant. We were so disappointed as we had intended to dine in each night but after the first night we decided against it.

They had planned Window cleaneing but gave residents no notice. So only realised when i got out of the shower and a window cleaner was looking in my window with me naked as I came out of the bathroom. because no one was advised all the windows were open so water was spraying into the rooms, drenching the widow sill onto the carpet. Obviously this was a complete lack of privacy.

Housekeeping took a bottle away with whisky still in it from the sideboard. It wasn't in the bin. We were compensated with 2 drinks in the bar.

Unfortunately it is a destination so it was over run with groups conferences and weddings even though we were there wed to friday. It was very difficult to find a space that was not invaded by them. I feel they should have been offered there own meeting spaces fro drinks etc. so other guests could use the bar, or lounge and restaurant.
