"all around perfect"

Staff are so friendly and welcoming, they’re extremely lovely and make this place feel special. The massages at the spa are out of this world too. And would always go back to Spice, again, lovely staff and incredible food.

"Romantic, serene and ideal for a couple retreat."

10.0

The room was beautiful - the attention to detail was perfect, providing locally made, handcrafted products. The room was clean and had everything we required. The food was at an elite level - we ate at Spice which was next level amazing. The breakfast was one I have thought about loads since - just delicious!

"We will be booking again soon."

10.0

Garden suite was superb plenty of room and quality furnishings plus bonus of use of a sauna, reception staff to waiting and ground staff were fantastic and helpful

You need to book reservations in the two restaurants well in advance of arriving but my fault really for that.

"Lovely - but better to visit for the day than to stay"

8.0

Dinner at source was amazing, as was the spa. Emily on the front desk could not do enough to help you.

If you stay in the main house, the hotel itself lacks the 5 star feel you might expect for the value. I’d recommend anyone the spa and restaurant, but would just recommend to stay elsewhere and visit for the day. It’s nice and comfortable, but not good value for money.
