The hype
Reviewers universally adore the grounds and the spa's design, but service speed in the restaurant is a frequent frustration.
The Elms Hotel & Spa
$215-460 / 每晚
如果以下情況適用，請預訂 You want a dog-friendly country manor escape where the spa feels like a botanical garden and the kids are actually welcome.
為什麼人們喜歡它
- The 'Greenhouse Spa' with its indoor/outdoor hydro pool and botanical theme
- Coach House Suites that feature private terraces with dual outdoor roll-top bathtubs
- Genuine dog-friendliness, including dining access in the bar and extensive grounds
快速概覽： A stunning Queen Anne mansion that nails the 'botanical chic' aesthetic but occasionally drops the ball on slow dinner service and soundproofing.
由 @bonnierakhit 評論: I felt like I walked straight onto a Bridgerton set here. The spa was the perfect warm escape from the winter chill, and dinner at Badgers was incredibly cozy. Honestly, the grounds alone are worth the trip for that main character feeling.

Reality check
While the 'botanical' vibe is immersive, some guests found the pool water too cold and the steam room occasionally out of order.
- You are traveling with a dog and want them treated like royalty (except in the spa)
- You love a spa that feels like a secret garden rather than a clinical lab
- You need a family-friendly luxury hotel that has dedicated swim times for kids

常見問題與隱藏小貼士
預訂前您真正想知道的一切。

Is there a pool?
Yes, a heated indoor pool and an indoor/outdoor hydrotherapy pool as part of the Greenhouse Spa.
What are the hidden fees?
No resort fees, but there is a £5 tray charge for room service and breakfast is extra on third-party bookings.
Is it good for kids?
Surprisingly yes for a manor hotel. There are dedicated swim times, a playground, and family-sized suites.
How is the food?
The setting at 'Badgers' is lovely, but reviews consistently flag slow service. The food quality is generally good, though there have been rare quality control mishaps.
Is there EV charging?
Yes, there are two EV charging points in the main car park, free for guests to use on a first-come basis.

出發前需要知道的 5 件事
💡The 'botanical' spa theme isn't just a name; it literally feels like a greenhouse with plants everywhere.
💡The steam room and sauna are sometimes out of order, so check before booking a spa day.
💡You can eat with your dog in the bar area, which serves the same menu as the restaurant.
💡The hotel is reportedly 'haunted' (or at least has that old manor vibe), which adds to the character.
💡Cell service can be spotty in the valley, so rely on the Wi-Fi.
