  • Stayed here in the Old Wing back in 1997. This was the first pricey hotel in which I've had the pleasure to stay and a pleasure it was. The only cause for complain was the undesired attention from one of the waiters but I found the other staff members to be great. One chap organised a horse ride for me through the Valley of the Queens at sunset which was absolutley fab, but I couldn't walk for the next two days.
    Large swimming pool with swim up bar. Tennis courts.

    Unique Qualities: Reading old leather books in the piano bar; get lulled to sleep by the croaking on the bull frogs in the gardens.
