“A good place for a one night stopover.”
The hotel is a nice place for a stopover. The room was very large and in the old fashioned style. The bed was comfortable and the linen was of a good quality. The restaurant was very pleasant and the staff were extremely friendly.

“Relaxing 2-night stay”
We stayed in Farmer, a luxury room away from the main hotel. It was clean and spacious, with a comfortable king-size bed, bath and shower, and a veranda looking onto a pretty garden. We enjoyed the peace and quiet and old-fashioned decor. The breakfasts and dinners served in the dining room were delicious, and all the staff were welcoming and attentive. Nice to have a boutique selling clothes and gifts on site. My husband really enjoyed a swim in the well-maintained pool. All in all, a memorable visit to Bedford.
