Well we couldn’t have asked for more, the lady on reception was a delight, the manager too. We had a lovely clean and spacious room with such a comfortable bed. Eating in the bar was a great experience, the food was stunning. The lady serving in the bar could not have been nicer, great recommendations and service. Relaxing pool and sauna. The perfect stay, thank you!

Good stay. Staff not very helpful. SPA staff were rude and not helpful. Otherwise room was good and nice environment.

We found the hotel was just an average one. We failed to see how it could be regarded as 5 star by previous guests. On reflection we would have been better staying in a good Premier Inn or similar and visiting this hotel's spa facilities as a Day Guest. The spa, gym and swing side of this hotel were certainly above average.

Area was lovely outside peaceful. Great spa services. Staff polite. Room clean .loved the fact had a bath and shower separate. Water dispenser available on all floors. The pool area could do with a paint, as pipes looking bit rusty and ceiling peeling in areas. Would been nice to have a jacuzzi.

Lovely hotel, very clean and staff Lovely. Used the spa which was nice but noticed the ice room needs some TLC (Mosiac tiles everywhere) and the seating in one sauna was broke. Food was high quality and tasty. Pillows were so comfy and the room had high end ELEMIS Toiletries. Overall a great stay.

Nice place, friendly staff. Very expensive wine for a basic hotel. £18 for a large glass and no bottles of red under £40? Didn't really fit the standard of hotel.

Overall the property is really good, staff is really friendly and helpful, the restaurant is really good and the breakfast was very good as well. Maybe they need to change a few things, like for example, our sink was broken, not sure for how long, but you'd like to think that a hotel like that will act quicker to those type of situations. Even with that, as for us it was a minor, we would like to stay again, the pool is really good and is so nice for walking.
