Booked a spa day at the hotel which included welcome coffee and lunch. Had a full body massage in the morning and a facial after lunch. Nelly, the lady who provided our treatments was amazing. She is very skilled, kind and professional. The spa facilities were clean and comfortable. Lunch was delicious and the hotel staff were welcoming. Thank you for a very relaxing day.

We were in town for the Agatha Christie festival from the USA. Didn't know anything about the area so picked based on reviews here. We got in late because of a late train and were immediately welcomed warmly.  …
