Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was delightful. The rooms in the main building were simply spectacular, offering spacious, comfortable, and clean accommodation. The location adjacent to a nature reserve made it very quiet, and the luxury chairs added a touch of elegance. However, the dining experience was a bit disappointing with some issues. Overall, a great place to stay!
The hotel offers a room with a beautiful view of the gardens, spacious and well-equipped, but lacking a TV. The service was friendly with some inconsistencies. The location is picturesque with a need for updates. The dining experience had some issues. The facilities were decent.
The hotel is set in a picturesque Warwickshire setting, offering stunning surroundings to explore, though some areas appeared a bit tired. The service was exceptional, with staff going above and beyond to ensure a pleasant stay. The dining experience was lacking, particularly for those with dietary restrictions. The rooms, while spacious and comfortable, were in need of refurbishment.
