Set in its own its own grounds. The approach to the country house is delightful. I saw a few rabbits in sections of the garden. The hotel does need updating/ modernisation, this is just decorative really. I noted that they were in the midst of decorating one of their downstairs lounges.However it was clean, the rooms spacious and our room had a view of trees/ greenery. They are not doing breakfast currently, so cannot comment on that. Staff were friendly and helpful.
We arrived on a Friday evening having been to Cadwell Park. We were soaked to the skin, muddy and cold. The owner Kevin welcomed us with a friendly smile and took all of our wet motorbike gear into the drying room. Nothing was a problem for him. Breakfast was excellent and there was a good choice of food. Our room was comfortable and had everything we needed. Kevin just made us feel comfortable and welcome.
Staff - very polite, late check in was accepted. Place - hidden behind bushes but can be found easily. Interior gives you imagine how feel your granddad when he comes to fresh modern hotel. For last 30 years there one piece is added - 22 inch TV. Never ever have seen trouser press!! That was something new for me. :) Good place were you can stay for night on business trip when you are tired as dog. Fresh air gives you deep sleep. Somewhere nearby is small town (4k population) and few pubs. I didn't check them because late came and early start my next day.
