Pros:

Lovely spa facilities and staff at the spa particularly friendly. Waiting staff were also super and the food was brilliant. Bedroom was comfy and large, bathroom was enormous and well equipped

Cons:

Very little criticism. Brilliant stay!

Check in process was a little lengthy. We checked in, got a call to come back for our key and still had to queue for quite a while, this could have been smoother. Tables were reserved for those with dinner packages a priority which seemed a shame as we would actually be paying more.
