The gardens had a lovely koi pond. I think the hotel room was super clean. I saw good parking right at the hotel.
The shower controller proved a little tricky when my hands were wet. The room was silent, it's true.

fresh cooked breakfastgeorgian buildingcharming gardenspa bathearl greyfamily emergency
The hotel had fresh cooked breakfast made with care. The Georgian building was just lovely and captured my attention. The charming garden gave such a sense of calm to my stay.
The spa bath did not work, I struggled to remove the plug. There was no earl grey tea available, a small disappointment. I unfortunately had to leave early due to a family emergency, a heartache it was.

Reasonable Stay

beautiful gardenstocked bardifficult entrancewet hand
The hotel includes beautiful gardens. I found shady places for sitting outdoors. The bar was well stocked. I found the staff very happy.
Our room was in a separate old building. The entrance was difficult for my wife to negotiate. The shower cubicle wasn't easy to use. I found it almost impossible to grip the flow control with wet hands.
