Hello Lovelies!
I am writing this with the last ounce of strength I have as I am super achey and fluey feeling. I keep breaking into little sobbing fits and Prince keeps nuzzling me and grooming my hair. Such a sweetie!
I mentioned in my last post that I was going away for the evening, and here is where I went:
The St.Pierre: A Marriott Hotel & Country Club..
I was contacted to ask if I wanted to review a stay at the
St.Pierre (A Marriott Hotel) in Chepstow - of course I did. Chepstow isn't that far from Cardiff so a night away but close by is what I've needed for a while now. It's a hotel and country club so it has a huge golf course and lake as you drive through the grand, tree-lined entrance to this:
That there is the view from our room of the hotel entrance - isn't it beautiful?!
The check in staff were amazing and put us in a room outside the front of the hotel named 'Iris Cottage'.
|
Our room is the grey door. |
The hotel also has an old church on the grounds with a very old graveyard which was great for a supernatural girl like me!
|
The cutie little doorway and desk area. |
|
the BIGGEST bed I've ever slept in - Ross looks so tiny! |
|
Luxury bath. |
|
Beautiful sink set-up. |
After settling into our room, a cup of tea and having a walk around the grounds we went over to their very posh restaurant, Morgans, for the most amazing meal. To start we had chicken pate with brioche bread and onion marmalade. For mains was pan fried chicken breasts with Caerphilly cheese and bacon sauce. For dessert I have raspberry and white chocolate cheese cake and Ross has sticky toffee pudding.
|
The nicest meal. We had 3 courses and wine. The chicken with Caerphilly cheese and bacon was incredible.
We were seated in a grand hall it was very Twin Peaks! |
After a few beverages in the hotel bar we got an early night as we wanted to get up and catch the breakfast buffet. Breakfast buffets are probably one of my most favourite things in the world - fresh English cooked breakfast, continental and fruit and cereals - perfect!
|
As you walk into reception - this is hanging above! I so want one in my house! |
Before we left we hit up the spa where we had a massage each - oh wow! The ladies there really know how to make sure you relax. We then went to the jacuzzi, steam room and sauna before checking out and heading back to Cardiff for
Swn Festival.
I want to just say thankyou SO much to the
St.Pierre Marriott and their incredible staff for a beautiful and relaxing night away. It's such a lovely getaway from the city.
