Guests Share Their Stay

We stayed two nights for a wedding anniversary and the garden suite had views over the lawns that made breakfast feel unhurried. Spent an hour in the gaming lounge after dinner — low-key, well run, nice change of pace.

Booked a room for a work trip near Cambridge and ended up extending a night. The staff sorted a late check-out without fuss and the grounds are properly kept, not just photographed well.

My parents wanted somewhere quiet outside the city for their retirement trip. The estate delivered — spacious room, good dinner, and my dad enjoyed an evening at the blackjack table, said the dealer was patient with him.

Held a small corporate retreat here for eleven people. The events coordinator handled the room layout and dining schedule well in advance, and the lounge in the evening gave everyone something to do together.

Three of us stopped here on a countryside drive and stayed on impulse for two nights. The rooms are quieter than expected for how close we were to Cambridge, and the garden terrace at sunset was worth it alone.

Came for a milestone birthday, six of us total. Dinner ran long in a good way, and afterwards half the group tried the gaming lounge while the rest sat by the fire. Everyone found their own pace.
