Good Hotel Guide Review
By a stone arched bridge, this ‘imposing edifice’ is in an idyllic waterside spot, surrounded by gardens that sweep down to the River Leven. The family-friendly hotel, in a former 17th-century coaching house, has been extended with the addition of chic, sustainably furnished accommodation, and a garden spa with outdoor sauna. Bedrooms range from romantic adults-only loft suites to interconnecting family rooms with bunk beds for children. Riotous florals bring playful cheer to the bar and restaurant, where a menu of snacks, grills and brasserie dishes is served. Outside, young imaginations can run wild in the adventure play park or nature trail. A terrace runs along the picturesque riverbank.
