Beautiful venue, price-quality mismatch
Great historical venue, beautiful parkland. Good breakfast. Kind staff.
Bedroom: bed too soft, scandalous ‘roll-down’ IKEA curtains that do not block the morning light. Bathroom rudimentary shower (max height 1.70m) with trickling water.

First overnight stay at Carberry. We were kindly upgraded to a suite which was most impressive.
Dinner in the Bistro was lovely. We asked for breaded fish rather than done in batter. No problem & it was extremely tasty.
Relaxed atmosphere , friendly staff. A hidden gem.

Just a great and relaxing experience. Looks of places to relax and read peacefully. Good food and ambience everywhere.
The only thing that I didn’t like was the green LED on the exit light above my door was bright and disturbed my rest as i like a dark room to sleep in.. when everything else is so good, something like this tends to stand out unfortunately.
