Great location but let down by food

A nice, historic building with friendly staff and an impeccable location. The botanic gardens adjoining are a real treasure. The food was a letdown though - high tea service was slow, we had to ask to be served after 30 minutes (even to choose tea). The sandwiches were made on stale bread. Surprisingly poor since the Verandah restaurant is highly rated. Room was well laid out and practical.

Absolutely Amazing!

Everything was just perfect from the minute we arrived. We were given champagne on arrival, bags beat us to our room from the car. The welcome drink and history of the house was amazing -Chris was fantastic! Food was to die for and our room was just gorgeous. I could not fault anything in our stay and wished it was longer.
