We were supposed to get a butler for the stay but didn't see him throughout the 5 days. Its a massive property so be prepared a long way to get things. Its a much older property so the wear and tear does show. Was disappointed that they couldn't get us a place dedicated to our group for a dinner for 100 people even in such a massive place. They need to be more flexible when hosting large groups. Overall great experience but only 3 stars in my view
