Lovely staff, room, spa, dinner, and breakfast except the scrambled eggs which were very unappealing! Only gripe is we were unable to book a spa break at the last minute so were charged £15 to borrow robes for the spa!!!

Liked: Staff & service
Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
The plus side: Plenty of parking (car park extends around the building so deceptively large) Friendly and obliging staff Nice decor - Christmas decs were up, it looked very pretty Good breakfast choice Single bed was almost a double The bad side: Clunky, outdated equipment in gym Changing rooms not great, dingy and a bit run down Spa wasn't as impressive as the photos suggest Noisy plumbing. Next door ran their shower (I think) and there was a loud groaning noise in my room - at 6am! No chain on the door The very worst thing was the APPALLING smell in the bathroom. I noticed it on arrival but it wasn't that strong. When I got back from the spa and gym it was much worse, in the morning it was really disgusting - a mix of sewage and rotten onions! I couldn't bear to be in there for more than a minute, so I couldn't have more than a quick wash and hastily clean my teeth, dashing back into the room when it got too much. It was so bad I actually felt sick when I had to use the loo. I hadn't been able to book any treatments so planned on doing a face pack and hair mask in my room and brought some products with me for this, but because I couldn't use the bathroom this wasn't possible. I couldn't even shower in the morning, it was so bad. Luckily I only live 30 mins away. I was hoping this would be my new 'haven of peace' once a month or so but I won't be back. I reported it to the staff when I checked out. They apologised but didn't offer any refund, just said they'd report it.

lovely staff, excellent food, warm and friendly hotel. Had a lovely relaxing afternoon and evening. Let down by thin walls and noisy inconsiderate bedroom neighbours awake all hours so we barely slept. Would love to come back and hopefully have a better night's sleep.

Room comfortable and quiet no aircon and very warm so kept window open. Reception friendly and efficient. Swimming pool area very good - cushions on loungers getting a little tired. Restaurant excellent service and food. Coping with large groups in other rooms didn't affect service. Breakfast area well stocked. Only complaint was one of the staff in the breakfast area taking fruit from the plates with his fingers - several times for his own breakfast.

No hot water in shower in the morning after first night’s stay and TV wasn’t working. Reception said these had been addressed when I returned for second night, but TV still not working. Some, but not much, hot water next morning. Otherwise, clean room and helpful staff with good service. Didn’t have breakfast. Only one dinner, which was good. Didn’t use the Spa.
