Good Hotel Guide Review
The hotel experts at the Good Hotel Guide
Behind the pretty façade of a Georgian townhouse in an affluent market town, this hotel is a perfect retreat, with small spa, oasis garden and croquet lawn. Choose from a variety of contemporary classic bedrooms and suites, perhaps with a dreamy, draped four-poster and an in-room stand-alone bath. All have fine fabrics and statement artworks, homemade cookies, White Company toiletries. Dog-friendly, sedum-roofed 'potting shed' suites have underfloor heating, a wet room, a private patio. The hobbit-style spa at the bottom of the walled garden has a hot tub, sauna, and mini gym; Gaia treatments are offered. Light lunches and afternoon tea can be taken outside when the sun shines, amid flower-scented borders.
