New Place

New Place

10/10 Excellent
"The architecture of the main house is truly superb, although having been designed by Sir Edwin Lutyens I would have expected no less. The house for the main part has retained most of its original rooms, where can be found lots of the original wood panelling, other architectural features and an envious oil painting collection. It should be noted that guest rooms are actually in a dedicated block, build next to the main house where the walled garden and kitchen garden originally stood. The rooms are basic but comfortable. The house grounds are quite large, and clearly too much for the ground staff, but they are still lovely and well worth a stroll during your stay. Food was excellent and all staff were pleasant."

8/10 Good
"We enjoyed our stay at the village. The bar area and food options are good. The check-in process was quick and efficient. The staff are helpful and quickly resolved a problem we had with the TV. Our room was compact but had excellent air conditioning. The bathroom had an excellent shower. The negatives: The clear glass door is simply inappropriate and gives no privacy. We are a couple but we have no need to see what each other are doing in the bathroom. It was also exactly opposite to the room door so when this was opened it gave full view of what was going on in the bathroom to anyone in the corridor. Also parking can be a little challenging at peak times due to people using the gym and other hotel facilities."
