"The grounds are stunning as you approach the hotel. Lots of parking which is always a plus. Reception staff were very welcoming. Unfortunately I booked this hotel to enjoy the spa facilities. I booked the day of the stay. When booking in, there were notices to advise the spa facilities were out of service. Extremely disappointed. If I had known this prior or been notified I would have changed my plans. The room it self was very nice, bed was comfortable."

10/10 Excellent
"This hotel is an excellent choice for families. The rooms are spacious, the staff consistently polite, and the food quality is outstanding. The leisure facilities — including the swimming pool, sauna, and jacuzzi — are well maintained and very enjoyable. As a family travelling with an autistic 9‑year‑old, we found the environment exceptionally calming. Breakfast offered a wide variety of options, and the staff were extremely understanding, thoughtfully seating us in a quiet area to ensure a comfortable experience. We had a genuinely positive stay and would happily return."
