    Staff were welcoming and helped us find out more about this historic property. Restaurant was great for breakfast and dinner. Location near the river was beautiful and must be lovely in the summer. Bedroom was comfortable and had everything we needed.

    Warm welcome, Leslie & Lisa couldn’t do enough to make our stay any better. The room was great, 2 large baths to enjoy a Prosecco in as we got ready for dinner. The food was really good too, as was breakfast.

    The hotel itself was beautifully decorated and rooms tastefully done. The restaurant makes it we ate lunch and dinner so was too full for breakfast in the morning! The spa was great but if you added treatments even better!

    The first room had some lights out so we were upgraded to the 'Bridal suite', a nice room at the top of the building. Definitely a fun place with two baths in the bedroom We had dinner in the restaurant, my fish and chips was great but my partners Caesar Salad was quite poor

    Beauriful room, with great view over the river. Had a lovely time in the spa although it was a bit small, it is well equipped (sauna, steam room, etc). Also enjoyed a dinner at the restaurant.
