Second home at Palé

Impeccable service here at Palé. Staff can’t do enough to make sure your stay is comfortable, relaxing and that your every need is attended to. Luxury feel throughout and the food is top notch. Our second time here and certainly won’t be our last. A second home in the UK.

A gem of a hotel

Palé Hall is a lovely building, but it is the staff that made it into an exceptional stay. All very friendly and couldn’t do enough for us. It was all very special, without being snooty or pretentious. Highly recommended
