Lovely hotel and spa. Just a few minor details that let it down.
Pros:

The spa was lovely and the treatment was brilliant. The buffet lunch supplied was good and the breakfast was amazing with full English breakfast options along with fresh fruit, tea coffee and juices. The Bed was very comfy and the air con was a bonus on such a hot weekend. Staff were really good throughout the hotel. It was a nice place for a weekend away.

Cons:

I would say the bedding could have been a bit cleaner, a few stains on the duvet cover. Also the bathroom was good but the shower let it down. The shower itself just needs updating and it had a leaky shower hose. Also we had a good dinner in the vale grill but had to wait an hour for our main course. I can understand them being busy but when I asked about our mains, I wasn't meet by an apology but with a remark about being in a queue to wait for dinner. Also was a bit on the pricey side I thought.
