The stay was lovely, great location and lovely grounds. We were only disappointed that we could all use the showers at once, meaning 8 ladies had to get ready one at a time. Also, the open fires could not be used, which we understand from an insurance point of view, but perhaps would have been better to know that before arrival. There was plenty of heating throughout the house, but nothing beats a lovely fireplace alight. The rooms are lovely and the setting is just gorgeous.
