“The setting itself is charming, a tranquil countryside spot that nonetheless offers straightforward access to main routes. My room was a delight, full of character with thoughtful touches like a decanter of port and a freestanding bath; the restaurant's food, particularly breakfast, was a real highlight, though a fatty steak presentation was thoughtfully corrected. It's a place that clearly cares about the details, making for a truly restful escape.”
James DavidEditor-in-Chief at Ukkent
