A garden desperately in need of some financing to bring it up to an excellence it deserves , historically if not aesthetically. One feels the staff are doing a great job but are sadly under-resourced.
Also, there is something delightfully English to take tea in the grave yard of the neighbouring church..dead delicious !! The raspberry sponge cake is to die for as is the honey and cardoman cake. Thankfully I'm still alive to tell you so !(3.0/5)
