Fantastic stay

Amazing hotel. The decor is beautiful and all staff were very attentive and couldn't do enough for us. Nice to hear 'sir' and 'madam'. I thought that kind of politeness had been lost, seems not. The breakfast was the best weve ever had. All staff seemed very hapoy in their work. Lovely to hear jolly voices, even behind the scenes. Furnishings lavish, eventhough we paud a very reasonable price. Perfect location, right in heart of Oakham. All in all, couldn't falt. Even our dog was treated to a special breakfast treat. My husband was very pleased with the ample parking. A very memorable stay which made our little walking holiday feel very, very special. Well done to the owners.

Staff are always helpful and welcoming but there could be small improvements like having a mirror when you dry your hair and maintenance is required to make it fresher in the rooms. It is a lovely old building but could improve the noisy stairs and sound proofing (two ensuites are butted together)
