“There's something special about a Tudor manor so close to the Royal Shakespeare Company, especially one with its own ELEMIS spa. The gardens offer a serene escape, contrasting nicely with the lively market town nearby. I imagine fine dining here, paired with the hotel's history, would be memorable.”
