5* Accommodation
Our accommodation has been awarded the highest 5 * rating by Visit England Quality in Tourism with, once again, a Gold Award accolade. Gold and Silver Awards are given to hotels and guest accommodation that provide exceptional quality in all areas but in particular in service and hospitality.
We regret that, due to the danger of the large deepwater pond at the front of the property, we are unable to accommodate children. We have, therefore, furnished the rooms to a very high standard, with the complete comfort of adult guests in mind.
Our guests have complete freedom of movement to and from our self-contained barn accommodation wing. There is ample off-road car parking available. To make a booking please call us today.
