the building has attractive historic features. the gardens are charming and well maintained. the room was lovely, and i found the breakfast pleasant.
i booked dinner in the oak room. one guest was not appropriately dressed, and the staff did not address it. the sea bass dish was very small and bland. the roast potatoes were over-cooked making them difficult to cut into.
