I stayed over one night with my daughter and grandchildren. It was excellent, nothing was too much trouble. Staff amazing, hotel room fabulous, restaurant and pool area exceptional. I would definitely stay again. Best hotel I have been to for a very long time.
The hotel staff are good especially reception and the gym but the spa which I was looking forward to it Wasn’t great
You have to pay extra so my husband couldn’t use the facilities even though I had 3 treatments
Which were not great the therapists are only just out of training yet they charge full price
I must admit I was lucky with my facial which was excellent
But the whole spa experience is not worth the money
Lovely hotel with friendly staff, excellent facilities, the vines restaurant was a real treat and a big bonus the we didn’t have to pay to use the spa as the leisure centre had a steam room, sauna, jacuzzi and pool that was free for hotel guests to use.
I would prefer it hotter but it was warm enough. Food was delicious, very good quality, staff extremely helpful and friendly, spa is beautiful with wide range of facilities.
Stayed for the Twilight spa and a Suite room. Amazing p

Excellent destination for a young family. Great facilities, food was perfection, we loved it. I would say not all the staff were particularly friendly but it was a 5 star experience other than that.
Staff are attentive and polite. Room was clean apart from build up of dust on hairdryer filter which created a burning smell.

Absolutely perfect lovely attention to detail as I only mentioned in passing it was my partner’s birthday and they did a lovely birthday desert much appreciated
Clean, modern room, very comfortable with a fabulous view of the grounds. Staff were very helpful and the open areas of the hotel were warm and welcoming.
We visit every Christmas and the condition of the hotel gets better and better each visit. So good to see a property being invested in and maintained. The rooms, staff, food and bar are really excellent. Only very minor gripe - some smoked salmon at breakfast would be nice.
The Hotel was presented well on the drive up to the carpark, well maintained and clean, The entrance to the reception area was lovely, Christmas trees and plants a very nice touch. The reception staff were welcoming and helpful, a smooth check in. We got upgraded to a larger newly decorated room, which was spacious and clean, two negatives the bed was very hard for us , only our preference. The next was the room had a extraction system in it that ran all night which disrupt your sleep. Unfortunately for us it also had a fan on the wall outside the window,so had sleep with windows shut.
We had a meal in the Elements restaurant which was lovely and the staff looked after us well. The cocktail bar was fantastic with a musician George playing the piano beautifully, even played us a song for being newly weds. The pool area is great, but it would of been nice to have a couple of loungers around it.
We treated ourselves to a spa day which was special, we had the weather on our side, and it wasnt to cold. The treatment was relaxing and professionally done.
Overall the hotel and grounds are very special, and we look forward to staying again.

Excellent hotel with great facilities. The bar was excellent and they mixed great cocktails
Room was nice and clean. Some weird things like no power ports near the bed. Just one USB in one bedside lamp. The other side has zero power options.
Also, its not great having to leave the hotel to walk to courtyard suites. Come rain or shine, you need to have a coat and possibly an umbrella which does remove the convenience of a hotel.
So lovely hotel but does feel more like a holiday park when you have to traipse around outside to find your room.
