We recently enjoyed a wonderful stay in the exceptional Blenheim Suite! Cannot say enough good things, it was spacious yet cozy, luxurious and rustic and very charming. We had been prepared to be slightly disappointed, expecting it to not live up to the promotional photographs, but it was truly lovely. We enjoyed dinner on site and breakfast the next morning, which were both great. The staff were all so friendly and went out of their way to be helpful. Would thoroughly recommend and will plan for future visits.

One night in Harwood
From the moment I arrived the service was fantastic and the property was great. Very cosy modern classic interior to the pub. The room was immaculate and had everything you might expect from a hotel room. I will be back.

Very impressed and loved the location. We went to go to Lionel Richie and came back late but the manager was still on hand when we asked for a bottle of wine on our return. The room was super comfy, amazing amenities in the room! Loved it and will definitely come back Xx
