Fodor's Review:

Journey past a fairy-tale gatehouse amid clumps of beech trees, and past streams and a duck pond to reach this grand 1729 country home. Beech Hill is very much attuned to the present with a number of conveniences to satisfy the demanding traveler (a trouser press, and tea and coffeemakers in-room). The vast honeymoon suite, with a four-poster bed, overlooks the gardens. Rooms in the old building are decorated in Georgian style; 10 rooms in a modern extension are larger and contemporary. A small museum celebrates the fact that Beech Hill housed a contingent of U.S. Marines during World War II. Pros: steeped in history with pretty grounds for walks; a convenient hideaway from where you can chill out after doing the rounds of Derry's sights. Cons: complaints speak of food being overpriced and customers' expectations not being met; not many frills on offer.
