Food Scene
This is a gentle old-fashioned hotel which does great dinners in an old-fashioned setting (very old school) and super high teas. There is also super riding for the non-novice adult rider.

This is a must for old-fashioned diners as it is white linen and silver service all the way and fabulous menus too designed by a French chef. The gardens are lovely for afternoon tea.
