Property info

We've been called a 'traditional hotel' by many of our contented guests. We never really understood why we got that label. Is it our polite and old-school way of treating people? Or maybe it's our slightly rigid obsession with 'traditional British aesthetics'? Perhaps it's because we always stick to our beliefs? Or stubbornly insist that the best meal of the day should be breakfast? Or is it because we're often found in the garden, getting our hands dirty as passionate gardeners? Could it be our commitment to being trustworthy and professional? Or the fact that we always strive to make every guest feel welcome? …Who knows? ... But hey, being called a 'traditional hotel' is quite intriguing, isn't it? We hold ourselves to high moral standards, embrace a peaceful and contented atmosphere, and treat everyone with kindness. Yep, that's what you'll find at our traditional hotel.
