  Enjoyable visit

  Had a very enjoyable couple of days here, and felt well looked after despite recent restrictions. The service was cheerful and professional, and our room was cleaned beautifully. However this is a very peaceful hotel which is lovely, but the downside is that you really dont want to negotiate narrow roads to go out in the evening. This being the case we would have appreciated slightly more choice on the set menu (we are not keen on tasting menus) and felt that if staying 2 or more days this is a disadvantage. Otherwise great!

  Great stay

  What a perfect escape, thank you so much. We just returned from a wonderful weekend staying here and loved it. They are managing everything very well following the pandemic and it didn't impact our stay in the slightest. We had dinner here one night which was exceptional, we had the tasting menu and I am so pleased we did because we loved every dish. Highly recommend. Thank you!

  A warm welcome, great food and comfort

  We have stayed here three times in the last 2 months- it is a really lovely hotel in beautiful surroundings. Willem and Pippa have gone the extra mile to ensure that guests will feel absolutely safe in the midst of the Covid pandemic. You will receive a warm welcome. The food is excellent and is accompanied by a very good wine list. The rooms are extremely comfortable (we have tried three of them now). You can always work up an appetite by setting off on one of the very enjoyable local walks- Willem will give you a map so you can find your way home.

  Enjoyed Every Minute!

  We stayed for one night in September. Lovely, if isolated, rural location. Easily found with 'hotel' directions. No problem with the narrow rural roads if time/care taken. Adequate parking. Warm welcome from all staff, with refreshment being offered upon arrival by the owner - classy touch. Lovely courtyard setting to enjoy pre dinner drinks (lucky with the weather!) Covid safe as far as practical. The whole property has benefited from what seems like a recent comprehensive refurbishment, without detracting from the traditional charm of the buildings. Our room was large,clean, comfortable and well equipped. Good shower pressure. Excellent bed linen quality - again, a class act. Despite the Covid spacing the restaurant had a good atmosphere. The limited dinner menu provided superb quality meals, which were great value. Well served and presented. A decent, well priced wine list to boot. Breakfast was to an excellent standard. Highly recommended.

  Escape in the country

  This is a wonderful venue and location. Its easy to find but via a very windy road but well worth the effort! Rooms are very comfortable and original in design. The staff were very welcoming and it felt very safe from a COVID point of view, we had our own table for the duration of our stay. We had evening meals on both nights of our stay and they were excellent. Breakfast was also very good. Would recommend as a lovely place for a real getaway and relaxation.
