Excellent facilities and staff. Room was superb and the setting was fantastic..
We stay for one night ,everything ok
Only fan was not strong enough Bed were comfotable but bit small
We enjoy breakfast and 2 hours free access to pool ,saunas ,jacuzzi .
Bed very comfy, floorboards very creaky, very long wait for food at both dinner time and breakfast but nicely presented and hot when it arrived. Staff very friendly and the tot tubs in the spa were lovely.
Amazing location and services, breakfast was delicious, staff was very friendly, the room was lovely and spacious, comfy bed.We loved our stay and we will definitely come back.
My partner and I had a wonderful time.The Waterton Hotel provides a most peaceful, relaxing, luxurious experience. We will definitely love to visit again, and recommend it to anyone in need of a romantic getaway
The location was stunning and very picturesque. The spa and swimming pool view was fabulous. The hot tub location and view was amazing.
Breakfast was very simple and traditional but quality was good.
The massage quality and type of massage ( deep tissue) disappointed us as I usually get an hour very professional Thai massage by half price!!!
Loved it! Made our anniversary stay so special, thank you so much! We’ll certainly be back :)
Staying in the main house was so special, highly recommend! We also added on spa treatments and facilities which were great too.
Excellent greeting whilst booking in . Evening meal very nice

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
The Area and Venue is lovely… I felt the room (in the main hotel) was dated but just Okay. The WiFi is terrible in any room other than your dining & main reception area. So if you’re wanting to work then this isn’t great. The Breakfast I felt was mediocre. Overpriced for what we got, and not great quality either the bacon, sausage and egg was poor. No black pudding. The setting is lovely but I feel they need to upgrade the place to match its surroundings.
The bar service was real slow although at £12 for a glass of wine and £7.60 a pint probably helped the customer out.
We struggled to find a hotel near YSP. This place could really do with a major upgrade. The grounds are lovely. Staff were friendly but the place is in dire need of improvement. A bit stuck in a time warp. Needs new everything!
