We received a warm welcome from Mrs Caulfield for our stay at Bass Court - as did our 2 house cats! The adults enjoyed a welcome of fresh scones, jam and cream and the cats were welcomed with their own bowls, food sachets, cat blanket and little balls to play with!! The cottage was very comfortable and homely and we... More

We stayed here at end of August, the welcome pack and supplies left in the cottage were wonderful, the staff were friendly BUT the cottage really needs a desperate update. There was carpet in bathroom and it was well past it. The beds weren't too uncomfortable as I have had in some places BUT they are all covered in a... More

The main bedroom with four poster was light and airy, the towels soft, and the water hot.

The Corfields are natural hosts. This hotel is always my first choice when travelling on business. I've always stayed in the main house, although the cottages look well suited to those travelling with children. The rooms in the main house are essentially suites with high cielings, four posters and tastefully decorated in a style befitting the period. My personal favourite... More
