About

Guests are consistently blown away by the stunning grounds and the historic manor house setting. However, the experience often falls short of the 'luxury' price tag due to inconsistent service and maintenance issues in the spa. While some visitors have a magical time, others report feeling neglected by staff or frustrated by 'out of order' facilities. It is a beautiful spot that needs better attention to detail to truly deliver on its promise.

User Feedback

The setting is spot on, but the service needs a serious upgrade.

Don't expect a cheap meal; you are paying for the view.

The spa is a bit of a gamble regarding what is actually working.
