The hotel offered a unique experience with its topiary heart mini mazes view, despite some limitations in room upkeep. Service was accommodating, although a bit underwhelming for residents. Being situated by the river Avon and natural surroundings, it's a peaceful location ideal for a getaway, despite dining flaws in some dishes. The facilities were satisfactory and priced above average.
