Fourteen new rooms in the garden wing open this month, all looking over the lawn with quieter corridors and softer lighting than our older floors.

We kept original sash windows and floorboards wherever they were sound. What you will notice is improved mattresses, locally made throws, better blackout lining and USB charging by the bed.

Housekeeping uses the same linen programme as the rest of the hotel. Dogs are not permitted in this wing so allergy-sensitive guests can request these rooms specifically.
