Spa was great and not overbooked which I was worried about. Hotel and spa both very clean. However, drinks and food overpriced as well as fire alarm light being very bright in our room which greatly interrupted my sleep,

Overall had a really good time although most of the steam rooms and ice rooms weren't operating. There was also building work going on until around 1700 but then stopped. However the place is a really high standard spa and breakfast was really tasty. We ate in our cottage from the Woodpecker menu which was excellent and easy.
