A really good find.

Liked: In between two days of driving and meetings, this was a lucky discovery. Very well located close to the motorway, yet in a beautiful and tranquil spot. The room was large and comfortable and I was able to concentrate on some work in peace using a large desk with good natural light and the sound of rushing water nearby. It is rare for me to give a place full marks but all aspects of my stay (parking, food, pleasant and helpful staff) were excellent. Thank you.
Disliked: Nothing.

Best kept secret in Midlands

Liked: I'm reluctant to leave such a great review because this is the best kept secret in the Midlands and I don't want everyone booking up all the rooms! I absolutely love it here. The location is exquisite. The food is superb. The staff are fantastic. I just can't fault it. And when I say the price is incredible, you'd be a fool not to try it. (Please don't put the prices up though, management). The river ambling alongside the property is so tranquil, the history is intriguing. It's actually located in the hamlet of King's Newton. How cute is that? I will stay here whenever I can as long as the quality stays the same and the prices don't go up too much. Lol. I used to think that about Whittlebury Spa in Northampton and then literally everyone and their aunty went flooding there and I haven't been back since. We were crammed in like sardines and the service went downhill.So, yeah, this place is amazing. But don't book all the rooms when I want to go please!
Disliked: The only thing that I can think of, which is a bit petty I suppose, is that I got skinny fries with my burger (which wasn't cheap) and I was hoping for chunky homemade chips. But, hey, I'm not mad l!
