The staff were fantastic, so helpful. We really appreciated that they took the time to learn our names so everytime they saw us they addressed us by name. A great personal touch.

Loved the room, hot tub, spa bath. Went for dinner and were incredibly disappointed. Met two friends who had arrived at the restaurant before us. They had gone there for dinner at a pm and were waiting until 8:40. We arrived at 8:20 aand waited until 8:45 for a bottle of wine. Our friends mushroom soup arrived around 9pm which was a little awkward. Our pre-dinnet bread rolls did not arrive until around half qn hour after that.
The mains for both parties suprisingly came out at the same time -despite the different ordering times. Again, over an hour and an hour and a halr before the were served.
These rooms were lovely - however 5he service is terrible, and i am still waiting to hear about a Swarovski earring that whould have been found when cleaning.
Again, the rooms are great but be careful as there are many stairs to focus on and the lights are a bit unreliable.
Apologies for the review, however dinner was unacceptable.

Some more attention to detail is required when cleaning. The patio area wasn't cleaned from previous visitors.
The bathroom sinks plugs were broken. One couldnt open and one wouldnt close. There was a water leak behind the toilet and the shower caused water pooling at the bathroom door.
Due to minimal staffing at this time of year i was unable to get a response when calling for room service.
Overall a disappointing experience. Fwlt like a 4* experience

I loved the spacious room with beautiful view.
But I think flowers everywhere should be raw. And toilet could be more clean. The spa was not clean enough when we tried jets. All the dust came out.

Fantastic rooms, comfortable bed, large well equipped bathrooms, superb views.
Breakfast service big disappointment. Waited aged to be seated and then sat ourselves. Only one member of staff dealing with breakfast, pleasant but not efficient, seemed to be floundering with workload. Long waits.
When asked at check out how things were we mentioned the poor breakfast service but the response was a rote, sorry we will look into it but said in a way which gave us no confidence that was the case or that it was a genuine apology with interest to improve.
