Stayed here for the second time, our first stay was in the Library suite and this time we stayed in the Armoury. The Armoury suite contained a small but well equipped kitchen, a reception area, a dining area, bathroom and the main bedroom. Did not enjoy this suite as much as the library, the Armoury is very dark (makes putting... more

Stayed in the Old Rectory for one night as a surprise birthday treat for my husband. We have stayed in a number of 5 star hotels and luxury resorts, so it takes something special to deliver a "wow" factor - the Witchery certainly met my expectations, and my husband's initial reaction was indeed "WOW!" The suite oozes luxury & decadence,... more

My husband and I have just celebrated my 50th birthday, staying in the Armoury at the Witchery. The suite is absolutely fabulous, very spacious and as you would expect, very well maintained. The rooms are superb, the four poster bed is very comfortable and the TV/DVD is conveniently situated at the end of the bed - perfect to watch while... more

This hotel was just gorgeous!! We stayed in the Armoury Suite and it was fabulous, the detail that has been put into the decor was second to none. It was clean, spacious, the bath big enough for 2 and the bed very difficult to get out of! It was pure decedence and we enjoyed every second of it! We felt... more

My wife booked a night in the Armoury suite for my 40th birthday and I just can't describe how magical it was. It was like time travel but with all the modern comforts. The suite itself is enormous and even contains a kitchen! It was very warm which, for a cold January day, was perfect and the long, oak panelled... more

Wow! We have just spent a night at the Witchery to celebrate my boyfriend's 30th birthday. I wanted to take him somewhere special and read the reviews on tripadvisor. Although I thought the reviews were good I was not too sure how we would like the rooms after looking at the photos as we usually like modern, contemporary hotels. Well... more

Stayed in the Vestry suite for a night just before our wedding. The suite was amazing, very romantic and we ate in the Secret Garden which was equally romantic. food was delicious the next morning we chose to eat breakfast in the restaurant instead of our room and it too was beautiful. And although we were the only couple at... more
