My stay at the hotel was wonderful overall. The rooms were all lovely, but I did notice a mouldy blind in the bathroom, which wasn't the best considering the price. However, the room had some nice touches like lovely chocolates and Molton Brown products, making the experience excellent.

The rooms were all wonderful, with lovely chocolates in the room & Molton Brown products. However, there was a mouldy blind in the bathroom which was not too pleasant when you're paying £170 a night.

The location of the hotel was also very nice, especially being just a few miles outside Tetbury and a mile from Prince Charles' garden at Highgrove. It could do with a bit more colored plants and flowers, but it's perfectly situated between Westonbirt and Highgrove.

The dining experience was a mix. While the food at Jack Hare's was excellent, the overall dining experience was a disappointment. There was a decent choice of food, but it could use some improvement.
