Pro's: Very comfy bed, food excellent, lovely bathroom in room. Con's: Tired/shabby looking decor in places, mould in the water cooler. Expensive to dine here. My self and my partner had identical treatments but the quality and length varied hugely Probably wouldnt come back and pay full price for a room, but might consider a groupon deal.

Thank you for your comments. Please be assured we have already addressed your points internally. We are pleased you did enjoy aspects of your stay. I am afraid we do not work with Groupon .

Staff not very helpfull. Treatments overpriced and no option to cancel. Spa too busy Parking too far away from hotel. People staying at hotel were stuck up and rude. Did not enjoy my stay here and would not go back again.

So close to being a 5* Hotel!

Pros: The grounds are absolutely beautiful, the facilities are great (when all are working!), therapists were fantastic and staff were polite and helpful.
Cons: Staff knowledge of treatments, cleanliness of grounds/rooms, better quality food for money, maybe some light entertainment for the evening?
Location: The location of the hotel is near to the coast (10-15 min drive) and there are some great seaside towns to visit and spend the day/evening at.
Firstly the negatives: very hard to book treatments so make sure you do it early! Out of the four treatments my partner and I wanted only one was available due to the hotel being busy. My partner was recommended an alternative second treatment which ended up being identical to the first one he had! I was told there was only room for a 45 minute back massage which in fact turned out to be only 30 minutes. (I hasten to add however that the therapists were amazing!). We ate in the restaurant on our first night but cancelled our reservation for the second night due to the experience! Unlike other guests we were not offered water when we sat at the table, it took 30 minutes for two cocktails to arrive and we ended up eating our starters before any drinks had been served! The main meals were okay but not worth their price at all, as was the same with the lunch. There was a variety of food for breakfast but the cooked food was a little disappointing too (sausages hard, eggs dry etc.). When we had our room cleaned, housekeeping took our old towels but didn't replace them! It then took an hour for towels to be brought to the room! Also the room was of great size and amenities however just a little dirty (cobwebs under the desk, red stains on the carpet). However despite all the negatives my partner and I had a lovely two night break here and will be returning and hoping that there will be some improvements made by our next visit.
