Hotel Review
Fanhams Hall, Ware, Hertfordshire
Fanhams Hall and its elegant 27 acres of Grade I-listed grounds have considerable history. However, there's not a uniform look and feel to this place; the beautiful Queen Anne- and Jacobean-style house is encircled by modern buildings. Some guest rooms are spacious and retain historic features including four-poster beds, while others are contemporary in style. There are various lounge and bar areas and a small fitness room.
