Overview

Our second review will offer more details about the hotel, especially the Spa, although we cannot yet give you our own personal thoughts as did not manage to visit, as I had already fallen by the time we should have gone in. Photos 1 to 6 There are plenty of cosy attractive comfortable little areas to sit and relax, especially with a glass in hand, and in colder seasons, each area is warm and cosy, delightful. You will note many original details, including oak beams, stone walls, flagstones on the floor, and these are added to by selected wallpapers, rich fabrics, different light fixtures. Photo 7 However, there are steps in many areas, which is off putting for disabled who rely on chairs, such as this alcove in the bar restaurant area. Photo 8 to 10. THE SPA When the hotel was modernised, the Spa was one of the main key points, as they felt that this would help create a midweek business opportunity. In February 2014, the companies Motive8, and architects Sparcstudio where asked to help design the two gyms , which included flooring, mirrors and other things, which have areas such as six treatment rooms, champagne nail bar, and includes two pools which have LED lights and an electronically controlled water system, which means they do not use more water than needed, and by using UV systems to clean the pools you have less chemical tastes. Photos 11 to 13 The restaurants are very pleasant places to dine, The main Garden Room, and the bars Potting Shed, with enough spaces for your wheelchair, and a menu using locally grown produce and beautifully prepared menus will tempt you no doubt. They both have a pleasant deco throughout, and feels warm and inviting, and staff will offer all the help you need. Photos 14 and 15 The hotel has around 63 guest rooms and suites, which includes two fully accessible rooms (20 and 21) in the main house, and they welcome your four legged friends (dogs) as long as they are over one year old. All in all, this is a type of hotel you will feel very comfortable at, a bit expensive, but it is 5 star hotel, and in general you may well cope as a disabled person, just be careful. We certainly recommend its standards, and hope you enjoy your visit here.
