Extra cost for spa facilities.

Excellent rooms. The only downside was the spa facilities was not included in the price except between 7am to 9am it was an extra £20 to £30 per a person at all other time which i thought let down the hotel. I would of not booked it if i knew there was an extra cost.

A home from home

Genuinely one of the best hotel stays we've ever had. We took my mum away for a spa weekend here and we loved it so much we spent all our trip here, including having every meal in the lovely restaurant. The customer service was absolutely superb and it really made it feel like a home from home.

Brilliant break

After a heavy downpour just after our arrival, our room ceiling sprang a leak and we had to move room but the staff were brilliant ensuring we still had a great stay. The views were lovely around the lake and we had a great round of golf on this interesting course which was in excellent condition. Breakfast was good and we enjoyed the tapas from Charlie’s bar. Thanks to Chris and his team.

Disappointing stay with poor service

Sadly throughout the stay as I was on my own and not with the bigger groups I was left, forgotten to take an order and information provided not as would have hoped for. Disappointing stay and won’t be staying again

Amazing helpful staff, comfortable room. Would be made better by having King Sized bed instead of standard double, given the size of the room. Missing cup & spoons in room, so only one of us could have a hot drink. Feel that they just need to pay more attention to detail
