沃伯頓查恩伍德別墅飯店

I stayed with a large group of friends and this place was excellent on the surface - generous breakfasts, cozy cottages, beautiful location. When I was there, I was planning when I’d come back with my extended family. Just be aware that it’s not all as it seems and you could be stung by the owner‘s dishonesty. It’s such a shame given it could otherwise be a beautiful place I’d come back to regularly and recommend to anyone. So, just be very, very careful because if you give an inch you’ll be taken for a mile.

Ella’s cottage was beautifully set up and had everything we needed - as one would expect for $385 for one night. We lit candles on arrival, as they were sitting next to the spa bath in the corner. At checkout, noticed that there was an item on the mini-bar list saying that candles were $35 each, so had accidentally spent $75 (including an additional fee for being charged). We suggested to the host that these could be better positioned so future guests wouldn’t make the same mistake - to no avail! Left a bad taste.

The beds were comfy, there was a lovely view across the valley from the front entrance, the cottage had old world charm and the breakfast provisions were excellent. The kids loved their bedroom upstairs. The property is well suited to those with good mobility and the surrounding gardens are beautiful.

Unfortunately wasn't a pleasant stay
