Categories

Cleanliness
8.7
Rooms repeatedly described as 'clean, tidy, well kept' and locker rooms noted as very clean; overall cleanliness is a clear positive.
Service
8.9
Multiple mentions of friendly, helpful staff (Sue at reception praised, chamber maid helpful); isolated negative about dismissive checkout/maintenance response but overall service is very strong.
Location
8.8
Described as remote with beautiful scenery and an excellent setting — a consistent highlight for guests.
Room Quality
8.5
Rooms described as beautiful, spacious and well kept; one report of a room being too warm and a hot-water issue affected a stay.
Amenities
7.8
Good range of facilities (pool, sauna, steam room, jacuzzi) and clean locker rooms, but some issues noted (steam room not steamy, sauna not hot) and entertainment quality mixed.
Value for Money
7.4
Guests feel some components could be included in the base package and find certain items (food) a bit pricey; value is slightly below overall impression.
Food and Beverage
7.6
Food generally praised (recommended dishes) but inconsistent — one strong complaint about cheesecake and comments that the restaurant feel is more pub-like and a bit pricey.
Overall Experience
8.7
Many enthusiastic endorsements ('fantastic stay', 'will be back'), celebrating staff, location and atmosphere; minor negatives did not overwhelm the overall positive impression.
