my son's wedding was hosted here. the staff ensured everything flowed without issues, from the ceremony to the reception. the food at the reception was served hot and quickly, a notable achievement. the countryside setting provided beautiful views perfect for photographs. i stayed two nights, and the room was clean. breakfast was delicious.
I found ex-guests socks in the drawer, the room seemed a bit dusty. Perhaps it needs more attention.
