We had a lovely weekend stay for my partner’s birthday. The views from the room were beautiful and it was really nice to have a private balcony overlooking the river. It was only a couple of minutes drive to Bray Village, which was perfect, as we were having dinner at one of the restaurants. The breakfast the following day was delicious too, and the complimentary drinks were a nice touch. Thank you

This is such a stunning property! Even though you’re a quick drive from Heathrow, you feel a world away. The birds chirping, the river flowing, the beauty around the property and Bray is all incredible. I went for many long walks as a solo female traveler, including after dark once on accident, and felt incredibly safe. Can’t wait to come back!

Lovely location despite the rain . Staff lovely and room very clean with nice views . Loved the underfloor heating in the bathroom .Difficult to control the heating in the bedroom however .Nice bar area and great breakfast . Had dinner in the restaurant . Staff there were very attentive and food fine. I would say the dinner was nothing particularly special.
