“From what I explored, this renovated 18th-century farmhouse strikes a balance between rustic charm and modern design, particularly in its super king rooms appointed with luxury linen. I noticed the exceptional Sunday Roast tradition, sourcing ingredients locally; the bar also caught my attention for its unique selection of cask ales and crafted cocktails. It's a spot that seems to blend historical character with thoughtful extra services.”
