Our weekend Hotel.................................................. a bit of style with fine dining

We have had such a wonderful weekend it will take me ages to share it all.
Saturday afternoon was spent looking around and shopping in the pretty little town of Bakewell.

I had booked us a room in a Country House hotel in the nearby village of Ashford in the Water.

The building dates from 1620 with extensions added in 1760... over 300 years of history.

We had a "Garden Room"... with French doors opening onto a small patio and the gardens.
Ours is the second from the left with the doors open.

A Lutyens bench... and a view over the garden towards the trout filled River Wye.
So relaxing.
The rooms aren't numbered... ours was called Rose.
Dinner was fantastic... our steaks were cooked to perfection.

Beautiful images, and the bench, steal my heart away.
