“Elegant and luxurious - an absolute treat.”
+For top quality, old fashioned hospitality in every sense, I don’t think anything beats the experience at the County Hotel. Our room was beautifully furnished, and extremely comfortable, with a spacious and lovely bathroom. All the rooms are different - different colours, different furnishing. It is like stepping back in time, but it isn’t “quaint”; it is elegant. The menu was lovely - fairly classical, beautifully executed and presented. And the staff were lovely - very welcoming and genuinely hospitable. I highly recommend this top quality establishment.

“Beauty and elegance”
+What a special and delightful find on Luxury Escapes. From checking in to checking out was seamless and welcoming. The venue was delightful, comfortable, spotless and the location exceptional. We were left a welcome gift and although we didn’t take advantage of the complimentary port in the library during our stay we were very impressed with the inclusion. Would definitely recommend and return.
