What an exquisite surprise to find this hotel on our road trip. As we pulled up to reception, multiple friendly staff came out to welcome us, and before we knew it, they had brought up all our things to the room and parked our car. I believe they upgraded our room which was lovely and comfortable with an incredible ensuite bathroom. All meals were fantastic and service exceptional. The grounds are gorgeous. While I've stayed in grander and more expensive hotels, this will remain our favorite on our five week sojourn in the U.K.
