We enjoyed our stay at The Grove. It’s unfortunate that most of their summer events & special dining experience are all in late July/august, so we didn’t get a chance to experience them. Loved the variety of activities & the stunning grounds. Rooms are spacious and comfortable. The hotel is a big events space and thus loses the charm of a country escape, and keeps a more corporate feel.
