The Elms

What might appear to be an imposingly pristine "slice of pure romantic England" turns out to be a traditional, unpretentious hotel that offers family fun all round. For the children, a creche run by Ofsted approved nannies, "Animal Man" who brings in animals for the children to pet, painting, a trampoline, cooking, the pool... The list goes on! For mum and dad, a treat awaits in the spa. Try the sauna, or the mud therapy room. An "atomsphere of laidback comfort" in a place that is "grand, yet low-key". After the children have gone to bed, enjoy a drink in the bar before heading to the restaurant for a delicious supper awarded 2 AA Rosettes.
