10/10 Excellent
"Very good 2 night stay. Swimming pool, spa etc very good, we thought that a closing time of the pool at 7pm was quite early though for the weekend. Receptionists very heplful and welcoming, Room was very spacious but could only find 1 socket to plug in electricals, which was surpising. Having a balcony with a fantastic view of the Welsh valleys was definitley a bonus. Slightly annoying that they were cutting the grass at 7.30 in the mornings on the golf course which woke us up after an 8 and a half hour drive to get to the hotel the night before, so much for a weekend lie in! All in all, a good stay and would visit again."
