Staying at Lainston House was wonderful. The rooms were stunning, albeit at a significant cost, and my 'family room' with 2 separate beds provided a comfortable stay. The service was outstanding, with very hospitable and attentive staff looking after us. The location was priceless, set amongst a picturesque English country manor backdrop. The dining experience was very good but felt overpriced. Overall, a luxurious stay with some minor drawbacks.

My stay at the hotel was a peaceful experience, I woke up at 9:30 without any interruptions, which was bliss. The only downside was waiting in the bar for 30 minutes while our room was being prepared, and the room itself was a bit dark and impractical. Overall, I would describe it as 'very good indeed,' rather than superb.
