Luxurious stay, pick the right suite
Great food, high quality service. Unfortunately, despite staying at one of the most expensive suites, treatment and spa slots were not reserved or offered so we missed out on treatments due to no availability. In addition, the orchard suite, which was recommended for its privacy felt a bit like a basement, and its outdoor bathtub was overlooked by the suite balconies above.

We really enjoyed our stay but found the cleaning timetable below expectations. We like to relax after lunch but our room was not cleaned until after 3pm which meant that we had to arrange our activities around the hotel schedule rather than the other way round. When we asked there appeared to be no flexibility in the cleaning schedule .

Very Underwhelming
Unfortunately not a perfect stay which was very disappointing with it being my husband’s birthday, booked through Hotels.com so not allowed to use the pool unless we paid £45 each, I have never heard of this before.The rooms are very nice but paying £5 for nut or crisps is ridiculous. The breakfast was very underwhelming with minimal choice, awful cold poached eggs, cold plates, weak coffee, all left me feeling very sick! Not worth £291 for one night.
