Good Hotel Guide Review
When the only aim is to relax, the Robinson family’s cosseting Jacobean manor house is happy to oblige. Ringed by walled gardens, with farmland sprawling beyond, the stately property has an intimate, ‘country house feel’ running through its smart, contemporary public spaces. The panelled sitting room is scattered with squashy seating, its walls hung with serene pastoral scenes. Uncluttered chic-rustic bedrooms (in the main house, converted outbuildings and mews cottages) have harmonious heathery and pale hues; some have lovely views over the grounds. Fresh fruit and vegetables from the garden are used in the locally sourced, seasonal modern menus. Along with spa treatments, bicycles and classic cars (extra charge) are available to borrow.
