Thought the spa facilities could have been bigger. A 30 min delay waiting for my massage with no apology or acknowledgement of the delay.
Rooms comfy but basic."

Staff very helpful and polite from the house keeping staff to the reception. Room was a good size, clean beds for us were too soft but once found a reasonable comfortable position had a reasonable sleep. Can I just say that when customers are asking for an early booking in time and booking breakfast before arriving, it would be helpful if you could inform the customers that they needed to pay for the extras on arrival or as soon as the reception opens at 1330hrs. As there was a bit of a mix up...

This hotel is for chillers only. Just relax and forget all your worries. Fantastic food, great staff, top class facility. BUT; dont have a 2nd floor room when it's the hottest weekend of the year. Not that you'll know when you book but it was just too hot. No air conditioning just a small noisy fan so took the edge off the chill factor! However, its was a fantastic base to explore west Suffolk. Do try it.......

The hotel & grounds were amazing, it felt restful & relaxing the minute you arrived. Everywhere was fresh & clean, all the staff were nice, polite & helpful, from the reception upon arrival to the services & cleaning, saying hello as they pass you or offering help if you looked lost. The restaurants dinner menu was limited for me as I don't eat fish or spicy food, the sirloin steak was my only option which was pricy, I requested it medium to well done, it was cooked perfectly & the portions were...
