"Fabulous podition, view, gardens and tarn - swimming was tempting even in December! Food delicious of course, perfect portion sizes and great to see a proper vegetarian menu! Staff attentive, courteous but always friendly - particularly liked those with a sparkle in their ete. Great Finnish waiter! Selected this hotel because the person who answered the phone was helpful, knowledgable, bright and lively. We have had a glorious time here - difficult to fault." MP, North Yorkshire, December 2011
