The second night we stayed at Prested Hall.....one word! WOW!
As we drove down the long drive way (which is always a sign of a fancy place) we were already blown away with the surroundings.
All the girls in the car were going on about how this would be an amazing place for a wedding! And they weren't wrong!
As we all checked in at the reception desk which was surrounded by dark woods and county house furnishings i was super excited to see what my room would be like. Firstly my key was an actual metal key! You don't find those much anymore...
As i climbed the grand stairs up to the first floor i saw my room was first. I put the key in the lock which was probably an original feature looking at the wear and tear around it.
I was greeted with this sight... *gasp*
So beautiful! I soon had the rest of the girls running in after me to have a look, we swiftly took a look in everyone else's rooms who had a similar beautiful old decor but all with a slight twist, but it came apparent that i had the biggest room.
That BATH!! Have no worries that i filled that with bubbles, picture further down.
We later had dinner in the adjacent building on site, which is also where they had a spa and pool. This building is a lot newer than the house itself, so for that i feel it is a little ugly in the grand setting. The restaurant is very new and modern, which again i found didn't feel as grand next to the decor in the house. That evening they had an Italian themed evening. the Food never the less was beautiful!
Starter - Roasted Vegetables with goats cheese tart.....Yum Yum Yum!
Mains - Roasted Chicken Wrapped in bacon with Beans and tomatoes.
Desert! (my fave part of all meals!)
Strawberry's with Vanilla Ice Cream! - lovely!!
As i mentioned earlier with the bath, as soon as i got back from dinner i put all the complimentary bubble bath in and set the water going.....
needless to say it was the best bath I've been in for a looooooong time! (HAHA)
After a lush nights sleep in the bed from the Princess and the Pea (at least that's how i felt) we all met downstairs for breakfast.
There was a huge selection for breakfast, there was the usual table of cereals and juices laid out just as you walked in, then on the table this little menu of scrumptious breakfast items! I went for the Three Egg Omelet.
When it came to leaving this wonderful place i was asked the usual, "was everything ok with your stay" Question. I said i couldn't fault it, beautiful house with beautiful rooms in an amazing setting! then i found out the best news! I'd had one of the bridal suits!! YES!!##
I would absolutely recommend a visit if you are planning a wedding!!
