A beautiful listed Manor House. The whole estate is meticulously maintained, as such better than when we visited Highclere castle! Go for a superior double mews room which has a patio door straight onto the grass, easy access for dogs to do their business. Plenty on bins on site too. This room also had a fridge so very handy for dog food. There is a nature trail walk around the perimeter of the hotel and plenty of green spaces & seating. If muddy there’s a doggy wash £3 per 3 mins. The staff are friendly, professional & very welcoming of dogs. You can only dine in the bar area with dogs, we found there wasn’t enough tables so probably best to go around 6.45 pm. From 7 pm both the bar & restaurant menu are available to you and the food was very tasty & on a dinner 3 course package excellent value. Note they do not serve bitter ..so no bitter shandy but no big deal. A great doggy one nighter, more than that you’d probably want to go off site. The pet calming diffusers in the room probably calmed us too ! Plenty of parking and the sat nav tends to take you on the back of the property down Gamblins lane and the hotel isn’t signposted but it’s on your left as you enter the lane. All rooms are outbuildings to the main gated house and parking surrounds them so unpacking the car is easy. We didn’t use the swimming pool but it looked popular from all the young children passing our room ..not sure if these were people using the facilities from outside on a membership as we didn’t think they were guests?! Good recommended one night break.
