Amazing property for a retreat! The staff is amazingly helpful and great attention all the time. The areas you can have a walk around the property are beautiful. SPA, GYM and POOL are incredible!

This is a SPA hotel located in a quiet countryside. The staffs are friendly and helpful. The reception lady was nice to show us around after check-in. The down side was the dinner at the hotel restaurant which was not many choices from the manual and Bar. And the taste of the food was so so.

While I appreciate the interior design, plywood panels to our bedroom felt very cheap at this price point and at odds to the grandeur of the building. And while furniture throughout the property was all very modern, some furniture like the dining room tables were a case of form over function with large pedestals in the way of your feet. At 54 I was also one of the oldest guests with the modern interior clearly attracting a much younger audience including groups of friends. Staff were all very young too and inexperience was often on show. Overall, the property did not meet my own expectations for a refined 5 star getaway. Funnily enough, AI had been choosing all my hotels and did an amazing job. On this occasion it was chosen for proximity to the Cotswolds but AI highlighted that it way fall short in comparison to other properties we stayed at.

Excellent experience. Great food and grounds. Heating in main building needs attention in public reception areas. No availability for spa treatments.
