The hotel was built some 500 years ago in the 15th Century, when Christopher Columbus was busy discovering America, and more than 100 years before the Pilgrim Father's sailed in the "Mayfower". The hotel, now a grade II listed building, was originally an important farmhouse in the district.

The property has been developed in the 90's into the attractive hotel that it is today. Carefully and lovingly modernising the furnishings to provide up-to-date facilities with a hight level of comfort — the Tudor Hotel, still retains its unique and authentic 15ht Century character and charm, evident from the rustic ambience of restaurant and the lobby bar. With the addition of a newly built annexe of 16 en-suite bedrooms in 2003.
