... wasn't very customer friendly, we were celebrating our engagement and was so disappointed. Front desk guy was rude and barely spoke to words. Took credit card to pay for room and literally handed keys. I had to ask for room directions

We have 3 boys and The outdoor play equipment obviously placed for children is old the soccer nets were all broken the volley ball net was torn! The games room had old machines a few had money taken and didn’t work! The kids train was out of order, the carousel was very old! The train driven by the concierge worked well and was the only piece that didn’t seem to be old and worn out! Rooms - carpet didn’t seemed to be cleaned well and Kitchen had a egg type smell on arrival.

Our villa had a lovely view over a lake with ducks and swans, the rooms are a little dated but very spacious. The food at Redsalt restaurant was excellent and the staff were very helpful a nice short stay.

The property is well kept, room was immaculate. The stand out of our stay by far were the enthusiastic and helpful food and beverage staff in both the bar and restaurant for breakfast. Friendly, prompt, thoughtful and speedy. God customer service is so important. Your team was beaming with welcoming hospitality
