the welcome was friendly and efficient. there was ample parking and staff to park the car if i wished (a nice touch). breakfast was excellent, and the room was always made up once i returned from it.

i think they might invest in a couple more charging stations. the numbers of plug-in hybrids and evs will only increase. the bathroom looked a little tired and needed a refresh.

Acceptable Stay

The room was large. It was a superior double room. The grounds are beautiful. I liked that there was ample parking.

The radiator wasn't working in my room. I received electric heaters to compensate. I think that is NOT very high end. I was surprised that the service charge was added to the bill. I was charged for crisps after ordering two cocktails.

the grounds were amazing, with beautiful gardens all around the hotel.

The food was a letdown. It tasted like pre-packaged microwave meals, and i found it excessively salty. the breakfast was basic and underwhelming. i expected better quality (for the price point, naturally).
