“The independently managed hotel offers a unique position with direct access to the Castle Ashby Estate. Wellness options, including yoga and massage, stand out. I think the Eyas restaurant, with its tasting menu, would be a highlight for culinary enthusiasts.”

Wonderful Stay with Excellent Amenities

hotel bikes complimentary activity

I enjoyed exploring the area using the hotel bikes for two days. I also visited the Castle Ashby gardens, a lovely complimentary activity. The hotel's luxurious rooms and overall upkeep impressed me.

The grass looked uncut, and the area seemed a bit untidy. I ordered drinks, and there were no draft beers, only bottles. A service charge was applied, even though I got my own drinks at the bar, which I found very poor practice

I found a cafe and deli within a short walk from the hotel. It opens at 10 AM and features a great selection for vegan and vegetarian guests, with many super friendly and accommodating staff members.

underwhelming stay, sadly

pre-made sandwiches cream shortage

the room was nicely fitted out. i appreciated the effort.

Afternoon tea disappointed. service seemed understaffed, especially at this price point. the sandwiches seemed pre-made. The cucumber was cut so thinly it was almost invisible. when we asked for more clotted cream they told us they had a cream shortage, quite comical, actually
