Lovely stay
Friendly staff
Very quiet
Ok. Not as impressed as previously!
2 years ago I paid the same price but received an extra evening 3 course meal, a lake cruise, a spa bath and also had bath robes and a better room. I was very impressed that time. This time however, was very different. Yes, I knew I got less for my money this time, on booking. However, not good value for money at all when I have that comparison to make!! We got a room on the first floor right next to the door meaning I had very little sleep the first night as it was constantly opening and closing with loud people constantly around. Our room was disappointing to say the least. If it hadn't have been for the fantastic lake view I would have complained. No spa tub like previously... crap shower which had hardly any pressure/power. Towels were stained. No bath robes or slippers. One hot chocolate and one packet of biscuits provided (2 people, 300 paid). Little things make a big difference!!! Room was basic and pretty naff to be honest. View is amazing but the roof is a mess and is in great need of tidying up and some TLC!! Staff were great, no concerns. Breakfast - OK. Little pastries left by 08:30. Nothing was refilled apart from hot food which was very basic. Dinner was beautiful. Staff very polite and friendly in the restaurant!!
Would be nice to not have to ask for vegetarian menu and to maybe just have those options on the normal menu as very restricted menu if you aren't into meat. Also, it would be nice to know 48hours in advance what the menu is in order to decide which night to eat in the restaurant.
The spa is good but WAY too hot room temperature. I had to leave early both days as very difficult to relax in that heat!!!
Jacuzzi needed cleaning out. Outdoor lounges were very messy and not tidied up. Changing area is way too small. View from jacuzzi however, is amazing.
Lots of little things to be improved!!
Not the best deal for 300. I would not book again for this price.
Very enjoyable
We enjoyed our stay and will come back with the family soo
Excellent hotel, especially for a special occasion. Would definitely recommend it.
Lovely hotel with beautiful views
