“a busy, modern hotel in a country setting, with lovely grounds.”
The long driveway up to the Norton Park Hotel seemed a good sign - more rural than we'd expected, but still less than 30 minutes from winchester. A mainly modern hotel, but with a small number of 'deluxe rooms' in a much older manor house.
The hotel was nicely furnished and very clean. The staff were efficient but not especially friendly. The gym and pool areas were very good.
At breakfast, the buffet offered a reasonable choice, but was not as inviting as the menu suggested! Food in the bar was very nice, though overpriced for some rather small portions.
Overall, an enjoyable stay, and good value for money, with Expedia offering better rates than some of the competition!
