Sadly not a great nights sleep, but large rooms

The room and bathroom was very large, however the bed was not comfortable and there was a lot of noise from the road and the room above resulting in a poor nights sleep.

Our large room was lovely but odd in no wardrobe, couple flat hooks on wall, insufficient for our needs of more than 2 items and costs. Our friends had a small wardrobe no sofa. Dinner was truly excellent, all dishes.

Loved it

Great location, friendly and helpful staff. We had a “cosy” room but it was big and lovely bathroom. My only complaint would be lack of power points. To use the kettle or coffee maker you had to go under the dressing table to swap the plugs and same to use the hairdryer. It was clean and very comfortable and a bonus we didn’t know about was you can walk straight into Burghley house grounds from the hotel. The breakfast was included and excellent. We chose the full English but plenty of options. We didn’t eat there for dinner but the restaurant did seem busy. Would definitely stay there again
