Disappointing
Pros:

Me and my family went here on Monday for two nights, it was booked months in advance for my grandmothers 60th birthday. Two nights away with family as a present, personally we would never ever be back. On the first night, my aunts whom two of them are deaf, one partially deaf, the first night were told that there was noise complaints and they were too noisy, in there rooms, by a man. To keep the noise down, which even though they were only talking they ignored the comment and thought Tuesday would be a better day, Tuesday came and it wasn’t, we were in the hot tub and once a girl came and told us to keep the noise down, then my aunts got into the hot tub and we’re doing nothing but laughing and talking, to be told by a man from the bar to keep the noise down again, we actually had the restaurant booked that night for dinner and cancelled so we could go to the local Chinese restaurant and sit as my aunts were that uncomfortable to speak in the hotel incase we had complaints by staff again, be aware if you’re staying here.

Ladies that lunch
Pros:

Just had another fantastic meal here with my friend. Today we opted for lunch and availed of their lunch deal. The same girl from last time Emma served us as well as Nico and Beth they were all lovely. Honestly couldn't fault a thing! The food itself was really lovely especially the scampi. I don't usually go for dessert but the bread and butter pudding was to die for. All and all we will be back. Thanks again for an amazing experience. Hard to find when eating out these days and it's always better when it does break the bank.

Can’t wait to come back!
Pros:

Myself and my partner went to The Rabbit Hotel on a relaxing getaway and were absolutely blown away! Staff went above and beyond to make our stay as comfortable as possible. The spa was spacious, quiet and so peaceful and we enjoyed our time there before our massages. The private botanical baths were a lovely touch to top off the treatments. Dinner on the terrace was fantastic with a lovely cocktail menu and staff were so helpful with drink pairings. Catherine and Anna-Rose in particular were so kind to us during our stay helping us with everything we could possibly need. Bar staff were so kind and helpful and dropped up a bottle of wine which we enjoyed in our private outside area by the fire. Florence the resident dog is a sweetheart and we couldn’t get enough of her! The room was spacious and comfortable with so many small details made our stay extra special and we’re gutted we didn’t book an extra night now but will 100% be back again.
