My anniversary stay turned out to be quite frustrating due to hot water issues in the premier room. The staff seemed unprepared to handle the situation, resulting in multiple room changes without resolution. While the ambiance is nice and the hotel has excellent golfing facilities, the overall service and dining experience fell short of expectations, making it hard to recommend for a special occasion.

My stay at the hotel was truly rejuvenating, especially with the tranquil spa environment and the exceptional quality of treatments offered. The Treehouse studios were outstanding, providing a unique, luxurious experience with stunning decor. However, the afternoon tea service left much to be desired, and there were cleanliness issues in my room. Overall, it was a pleasant getaway but could use some improvements in service consistency.

We had a memorable anniversary treat at this hotel, enjoying good value with a £50 food voucher and truly amazing food. The staff went above and beyond to assist us, although the spa could use some updates. The hotel had a warm atmosphere that made our stay enjoyable, but unfortunately, our dining experience on another occasion left much to be desired, particularly with the poor quality of a carvery meal.

I had high hopes for my birthday getaway, but unfortunately, it was quite a mixed experience. While the ambiance of the hotel was beautiful and the staff in the Fusion restaurant were fantastic, the housekeeping and dining experiences left much to be desired. I was disappointed by the cleanliness in the room and some of the service felt chaotic during breakfast, which took away from what could have been a perfect stay.
