Hmmmm not a lord or lady, and most definatly not landed gentree, just a hard working beauty therapist! The country house we work in was a farm house, they converted stables into cottages for self catering luxury breaks, and made the bedrooms in the house super luxury as I described before.After 2 years really hard work they are fully booked most of the year.they only do breakfasts no evening meals.
The usual clients are tourists from the USA, business people escaping from London and young couples celebrating anniversaries , no airs or graces there!.They get a lot of repeat business and are rated 5 stars with the tourist board.We send staff there from our day spa to pamper the guests , much nicer than a health farm.
They charge a lot more than £120 a night(per room)
good luck
