Whilst staying at a nearby spa, my mum and I were treated to a meal at this beautiful estate... The service was friendly and attentive without being overbearing and we had a lovely evening. The ease with which they catered to our slightly challenging dietary requirements was refreshing - they tailored the menu to each of our needs to create... More
