Worth a stay in its own right later this year ##### Robert Stayed 1 night in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Thomas Sep 14, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Lovely staff Amazing stay, staff we really helpful!

Unfortunately had a call 10 minutes before we arrived to say the jacuzzi had broken down & would be out of use. We had a 3 coarse meal that was absolutely amazing! Complements to the chef! Only down side - we thought drinks were over priced at £12 for a large glass of wine. ##### Margaret Stayed 1 night in Dec 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Keely Jan 23, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities It was a relaxing place to chill and rejuvenate.Staff were polite and helpful.

Very nice garden and superfriendly hostesses. One thing that we missed is an airconditioner. There is a fan but it is very warm in the room ##### Ria Stayed 1 night in Sep 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Sarah Oct 22, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Rooms were too hot, no aircon. Pool was overcrowded. Food was excellent. ##### Sarah Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### deborah Jul 30, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Didn’t like no storage in the bedroom. Only 6 hangers for two of us. Also the menu was too fancy for us so we couldn’t eat there as nothing plain for us and we would have loved to chill in the restaurant and bar area without having to drive out for dinner each evening. Staff were amazing as are the grounds. ##### deborah Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### simon Aug 3, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities #### Nice hotel and spa. Imogen was brilliant before we arrived arranging everything to cater for my mobility issues. Check in was challenging but once we got to the room things improved. Bar was nice but has a limited food menu after 3 and no food after 6 so make sure you book for dinner. Dinner was lovely. Varied menu and excellent food. No air con in the rooms just a very loud desk fan. Had a facial which was lovely. Spa is nice but fairly small and is packed during the day when the day guests are there. ##### simon Stayed 1 night in Aug 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### D&A Sep 13, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Great spa facilities. Quiet lication to catch up with rest and also the building was not noisy in the bed areas. Loved the policy to be able to breakfast in the hotel dressing gowns or one's sports wear.The gardens made it for us. Very botanical with lots to spot and history. Great walks just beyond the gardens if you wish to walk off the calories! Dinner menu wasn't great so we ate out each night, including one at the very good Bangladeshi/Indian restaurant in the village. Breakfast was ample with choices but created a lot of guest movement to the counter area. Providing trays may help abate this, perhaps? One downside still to be resolved is the alcohol order on our tab at checkout, that we had never ordered. Otherwise would return for the spa facilities, informality and gardens in a different season. ##### D&A Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Hilary Aug 26, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities #### A pleasant and relaxing weekend... My daughter and I enjoyed our spa weekend. We received a very warm welcome including a map and instructions to find our way around. The staff were very pleasant. The grounds are lovely and the ambience was relaxing with everyone walking around in their robes. Our room was spotless with a lovely big shower room and we loved the luxurious toiletries supplied, they smelt wonderful. Excellent breakfast with plenty of choice, tho' the queue was a bit slow for hot food as only one person was serving. We got up early Sunday morning for a swim, had breakfast then we had the Relaxation Room to ourselves, a complete winner. Some of the Spa area facilities were not working properly. The sauna did not get very hot, the salt room wasn't very salty and the cold plunge pool was empty Sunday morning. The Spa area is rather dull with grey walls and black loungers, some decorative changes could improve the ambience here, it doesn't scream luxury. Fortunately the weather was good so we tended to use the loungers outside. A few loungers dotted around the grounds would be nice for a bit of quiet contemplation or reading. One small off putting note, was the little signs everywhere, to 'not take hotel belongings home'! Overall we did enjoy our stay and would recommend this hotel. ##### Hilary Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2024 ### 4/10 Poor #### Toni May 26, 2024 Disliked: Staff & service #### Overpriced The hotel and spa was not what I expected . In arrival I was asked to make payment when I said I have already paid … the guy at reception says “well it says here I need to take payment” I got up my online banking to prove payment had been made. This started it all off quite badly . We then made our way to our room that was very basic and there was chewing gum down the toilet and the toil base was stained. Service at the bar was terrible , we ordered drinks and was told they would brought over to us. We sat and witnessed a big group make an order and receive their drinks before ours also two other couples . I had to go to bar and point this out to get our drinks. I was told that the delay had been because they had no milk and need to get this. Yet no one thought to mention this. We went out to a local pub for dinner and had an amazing meal thankfully we did go out because the pub made my weekend. Breakfast was nice and well organised at the hotel. I have stayed and plenty better places than this for a fraction of the price and wouldn’t recommend to anyone ##### Toni Stayed 1 night in May 2024 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Pine Lake Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Carnforth-Hotels-Pine-Lake-Resort.h1928661.Hotel-Information) > > [Burgh Island Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Kingsbridge-Hotels-Burgh-Island-Hotel.h34611055.Hotel-Information) > > [The Belfry](https://www.expedia.ca/Birmingham-Hotels-The-Belfry.h3976.Hotel-Information) > > [Delta Hotels by Marriott Heathrow Windsor](https://www.expedia.ca/Slough-Hotels-Heathrow-Windsor-Marriott-Hotel.h3830.Hotel-Information) > > [Radisson Hotel Manchester City Centre, A Verified Net Zero Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Manchester-Hotels-Park-Inn-By-Radisson-Manchester-City-Centre.h2601411.Hotel-Information) > > [Cave Hotel & Golf Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Faversham-Hotels-Cave-Hotel-Golf-Resort.h33410673.Hotel-Information) > > [Best Western Plus Fox Creek](https://www.expedia.ca/Fox-Creek-Hotels-Best-Western-Plus-Fox-Creek.h7672782.Hotel-Information) > > [Millcroft](https://www.expedia.ca/Penrith-Hotels-Millcroft.h26994538.Hotel-Information) > > [Super 8 by Wyndham Red Deer](https://www.expedia.ca/Red-Deer-Hotels-Super-8-By-Wyndham-Red-Deer.h565075.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn London-Gatwick Airport by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Horley-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-London-Gatwick-Airport.h16918.Hotel-Information) > > [Alexandra Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Toronto-Hotels-Alexandra-Hotel.h11161.Hotel-Information) > > [Lakes Hotel and Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Windermere-Hotels-Lakes-Hotel-And-Spa.h901040.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Hull Marina by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Hull-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Hull-Marina.h10609.Hotel-Information) > > [Superior Inn Hotel and Conference Centre Thunder Bay](https://www.expedia.ca/Thunder-Bay-Hotels-Victoria-Inn-Hotel-And-Convention-Centre.h900513.Hotel-Information) > > [Royal Whitby](https://www.expedia.ca/Whitby-Hotels-The-Royal-Hotel.h57917040.Hotel-Information) > > [The Porch House](https://www.expedia.ca/Cheltenham-Hotels-The-Porch-House.h4595892.Hotel-Information) > > [Hôtel Alt Montréal](https://www.expedia.ca/Montreal-Hotels-Hotel-Alt-Montreal.h7804371.Hotel-Information) > > [Embassy Suites by Hilton Seattle Bellevue](https://www.expedia.ca/Seattle-Hotels-Embassy-Suites-By-Hilton-Seattle-Bellevue.h14411.Hotel-Information) > > [Four Seasons Hotel Hampshire](https://www.expedia.ca/Hook-Hotels-Four-Seasons-Hotel-Hampshire.h986107.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Philippine Airlines](https://www.expedia.ca/Philippine-Airlines-Flights.cPR.Travel-Guide-Airlines) > > [Flights from Edmonton (YEG) to Toronto (YYZ)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yeg/yyz/edmonton-to-toronto) > > [Flights from Minneapolis - St. Paul (MSP) to Orlando (MCO)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/msp/mco/minneapolis-to-orlando) > > [Flights from Calgary (YYC) to Minneapolis - St. Paul (MSP)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyc/msp/calgary-to-minneapolis) > > [Flights from Toronto (YYZ) to Calgary (YYC)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/yyc/toronto-to-calgary) > > [Flights from Montreal (YUL) to La Romana (LRM)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yul/lrm/montreal-to-la-romana) ### General
