“I found the attention to detail in the rooms quite charming, with a classical British feel and thoughtful touches, though some areas could benefit from a more thorough cleaning. The commitment to locally sourced ingredients shines through in the delicious meals, particularly the Sunday roasts, and the staff are genuinely welcoming. It's a countryside stop that's certainly worth seeking out for its atmosphere and food.”
