I was worried after reading some of the recent reviews, but we had a great time and wish we had 2 nights there. The setting is gorgeous on the lovely lake, loved the food at dinner, it was really tasty & healthy , we had a really spacious room. The decor is old fashioned and the bathroom needs updating but most old English hotels are. Breakfast was terrible & very slow but we enjoyed everything else. The spa is lovely but was very busy until after 5. in the evening There was a brilliant pianist playing in the lounge area which was nice.

Nice
The hotel is lovely, the spa is nice but some of the saunas were not very hot, and some oats were not working at all. It’s not a huge spa but was perfect after a day exploring. Wouldn’t necessarily spend all her day here but a couple evenings in the evening was great!

Amazing hotel, stunning views, poor spa temperture
Fantadtic hotel, stunning but the Spa jacuzzi temperatures are worst i have ever been to, luke warm, guests were saying it put them off coming again, we got quite cold which isnt good and needed a hot bath to warm up when back in the room, apart from that fantastic, such a shame as really loved it there

Never again
An absolute chambles for a well loved brand name! Arrived at 10pm,the night receptionist was angry and did an awful check in, were told there is no room service or even a snack or a drink. We were handed a paper to say that if we want to use the SPA next day we have to pay £70/person including lunch. Room was OK can do with a proper clean. Breakfast was limited in options. Check out was a nightmare as there was a huge queue and we were waiting fir over 30min. We opted for the express check out at the end bit still had to queue to return the robes!

Communication needs to be better
We booked this over night trip for our mini moon and told them well in advanced, when arriving to our room the beds were singles, this was quickly resolved, but found the bed very uncomfortable, no hot water in the shower, hydrotherapy pool cold and so was the sauna, we also booked ourselves a treatment but when waiting to go in we found it was double booked, they offered us complimentary lunch because of the mix up to find our names we're not actually down to eat, a lot of little issues that really didn't make us feel that relaxed

Super disappointing stay
Awful stay do not recommend at all. Visited this past weekend for my birthday, which we made a note of on the booking but was ignored. The rooms are tiny and very dated with a lot of things broken and not working properly like the shower and door locks. There is also no air con in the room so prepare to be boiling. The location is lovely but the grounds are not well looked after at all. The front grass by the lake is so covered in duck poo you cannot walk without standing on it. The patio is grimey and in desperate need of a scrub and the furniture is broken. The service is absolutely horrendous. It took over 2 hours to serve us 3 courses for dinner, we had to keep begging to be served. Everything is supplemental on the menu and the choices are poor. I was served food and drink that I was allergic too twice despite telling them numerous times and being given an allergy report for our table. The breakfast options are incredibly poor and any hot food is of course, supplemental. The staff are beyond rude and really know how to make someone feel unwelcome. In addition to all this, you cannot use the spa facilities before 5pm unless you pay £70 per person per day in addition to your £500 a night room charge. The outdoor pool has never been cleaned and you swim amongst dead bugs. They closed the checkout desks during check out hours, likely so we have to go through express checkout and can’t give any feedback. It was a super disappointing trip and ruined my birthday weekend.
