		The main building is a former private home dating from the 1880s, but over the years the hotel has been skilfully extended to incorporate a row of historic 16th-century cottages that once formed a timber framed baronial hall; the resulting winding corridors and the wealth of exposed beams have a particular charm.
		The Abbey's accommodation includes spacious, relaxing rooms, some of which also offer a comfortable seating area; the double bedrooms benefit from marvellously comfortable king-sized beds.
