"Amazing original building with a fascinating history. Most of the rooms are in an annex which are looking a little tired e.g. the bathrooms are dated. Outside parking is easy and lovely grounds. Unfortunately several of the picnic syle tables have seen better days. Overall it's not luxurious, however it's prices reflect this."
