Our stay at this beautiful property was truly delightful. The room was spacious and full of character, offering stunning views that made waking up to birdsong each morning feel like a dream. The surrounding gardens are immaculately maintained, creating a peaceful oasis, and the pool area was a wonderful spot to unwind. We also appreciated the generous breakfasts, served in a choice of charming indoor spaces, which added variety and enjoyment to our mornings. There is much to love about this place, and with a few thoughtful improvements, it could become truly exceptional. While we respect the historic nature of the building, the bathroom would benefit from some modern updates particularly the water system, as waiting 15 minutes for warm water each time was a bit frustrating. Additionally, although we stayed for nine nights, we experienced very limited interaction with the staff. A little warmth or effort to connect with guests would have elevated our experience, especially given the premium price point, which is on par with a five-star hotel. Small touches such as complimentary bottled water in the room and a coffee machine would also go a long way in enhancing comfort and making guests feel valued. In spite of these points, we thoroughly enjoyed our time here and see great potential for this already beautiful property to become truly exceptional with just a few refinements.
