Babington House deserves its reputation as the UK's best boutique hotel as offers its guests the very best of everything - ambience, rooms, gardens, surrounding countryside and people watching - in a relaxed, laid back way. The Cowshed is an excellent spa - the pool is simply fabulous - with great therapists, although I received my treatments in one of the Mongolian Huts. Whilst a nice concept, I actually prefer the more traditional treatment room - white, tranquil and luxurious. Overall though - LOVELY!!
