Summary: Wow! Wow! Wow! Truly seduced by the rustic beauty of this glorious cluster of old farm buildings. Absolutely LOVED our room. This whole place gives you privacy and a bespoke experience. Even having a cheeky beer outside was private because of the box hedges around each table and all the mature quintessentially British fauna. Such friendly staff who could not do enough and always smiled! No room service but we were allowed to bring a breakfast plate to our rooms so we're chuffed to bits!! Have already set an intention to return .

Summary: A superb mini break, could not fault anything.

Summary: Our 3rd visit in just over 12 months, we love it here. When the suns out it’s even better, being able to sit and have a drink in the manicured gardens. Of course the highlight is the food, simply superb, a little pricey, but worth it for a special occasion.

Summary: Really lovely spot, stayed for one night before the races at Ludlow which is 15 minutes away. Had a lovely evening meal in the restaurant. Stayed in room 8 which has a 4 poster and a large bathroom. Staff were excellent.

Summary: What a find! We were so impressed with everything we found that we stayed an extra night. The food is exceptional- the dinner was outstanding and even the breakfast is a feast. The staff make an effort to provide a warm and helpful atmosphere. The rooms are luxurious with carefully chosen extras. The Courtyard garden is full of box hedges and bulbs. A joy!
