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!

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.

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.
