We have stayed many times and really enjoy the friendly and efficient staff and the effort of the grounds staff to keep it looking really well kept. The hot pools are a real draw card. The rooms are clean and staff do a good job servicing, but showers over baths is not great for older clients. This is gradually be changed but pays to ask if you don't want a bath. New management have reduced some benefits, eg. free breakfast for members and no 'welcome back' gifts. The grounds are lovely and the walk along the hot natural stream has potential for development to add to the stay experience. We ate in and the meals were reasonably priced and good quality. Drinks were a little pricey! We look forward to our next stay.

It was lovely to be greeted with big smiles and wee chats, thank you Milla. We appreciate the upgrade. Carpet wasn't in good condition. Mouldy bottle under the bed and old juice still in the fridge. We enjoyed coming back to a warm and comfortable room. We were fortunate to get it for an excellent rate. Thank you

Value for money Excellent. Facility is getting tired looking but it is still comfortable and as a 1 stop holiday destination is untouched with all the sports activities and relaxing. -3 degrees this morning and to hop into a 37° pool is amazing I will be back.
