historic elegance AT its best

fine groundsbeautiful housedelicious foodprofessional service
the grounds looked fine. the house itself feels beautiful. i found some of the best food i have ever tasted. the staff provided professional service, besides being friendly. the place felt very quiet the days we were there, and they upgraded us. it reminded me of true luxury.
the room i stayed at, decorated in accordance with the era, contained furnishings of a lower value. the furnishings did not fit the theme. i found the multi plug extension placed on the bedside table shocking, as it was used for charging phones.

i noticed there was little drawer storage space, although enough hanging space existed. the bathroom was quite small, disappointing. reaching the taps for the bath was difficult due to the shower screen placement.
