In a nutshell
"If you're into a bit of style and glamour ("it's very media darling!") then you'll love Babington House." "It's worth visiting for the bathrooms alone, which are pretty much the same size as the rooms and full of roll top baths, stainless steel power showers and fluffy white towels." "They have wonderful family suites which mean you can get a decent night's sleep." "The pool and spa area are stunning!", but you don't have to worry about it being stuffy: "the food and service are homely and relaxed." "Of course, none of this comes cheap - but what a treat!"
