Hedgefield House Hotel

8/10 Good

"Hedgefield House is quiet, comfortable, and has great charm. The garden and grounds are beautiful. The staff are not at all intrusive, but very helpful. We had two nights only, but I'd have been happy to spend more time there, and to enjoy the place. On the downside, there is no restaurant, but you can't have everything! There was plenty of in-room refreshment. I have family in the area, and I hope to stay at Hedgefield House again on my next visit."
