The concierge greets guests and shows them into a high-ceiling drawing room furnished with upholstered sofas and chairs, gilt-framed Georgian portraits, glass chandeliers, a chess set, and an open fireplace.

Amenity highlights: Guests are offered the use of The Bath House, which provides a large variety of spa and massage therapies, the Dower House restaurant, the traditional English tea room, and private dining facilities.
