The Oaklands Hotel has completed a 1 million pound refurbishment programme of all 45 bedrooms including 4 Feature Rooms and 8 Executive Rooms, with a brand new bar and restaurant concept offering both an excellent choice of dishes ranging from light snacks to a la carte specialities. The hotel is set in 5 acres of parkland with sweeping lawns, ancient oaks and stately elms. Originally built 130 years ago as a family estate, the hotel still retains much of the elegance of an English mansion. From 1st July 2007 Legacy hotels will be 100% smoke free.
