Gothic style hotel in superb, quiet surroundings

Comfortable stay is a period property in beautiful grounds. Only 2 downsides to spoil the perfection - fire alarm fault at 2300 on 1st night and a tiny kipper fillet at breakfast in the morning otherwise faultless.

Nice hotel in a great location.

We had a nice stay, the staff were nice, the room was a bit tired, comfortable bed, plenty of space in the room, quiet, great view from bedroom. Great location for local sites and Newbury races, plenty of parking. Lovery grounds to walk in, a Golf driving range on site, as well as a Golf course. within the grounds. We would come again, possibly with friends to play Golf in the Morning and go to the Races in the afternoon. We didn't have food at the property so cant comment. Good restaurants nearby and a nice theatre nearby. You could have a great weekend here if you plan it right.

Room was large and comfortable, but a few issues- poor wi-fi , TV didn’t work and no heating controls ( so room rather warm). Servicing was excellent, location beautiful and food good. ( We were told the room was due for refurbishment) Building is stunning!
