"After all the complications of the past year, we were finally able to reconnect with family and decided to treat ourselves to a private hot tub and dinner. Everything was booked in advance, and we specifically requested a bottle of sweet Prosecco to be ready for us in the hot tub. We were assured, “No problem, just let us know when you arrive, and we’ll prepare the drink.” This was meant to be a special treat for our family, whom we hadn’t seen in over a year. On the day of our visit, however, the spa staff seemed unaware of our drink request and only offered us cider, wine, or gin. We asked for simple Gin and Tonics and proceeded to enjoy the hot tub while we waited. Unfortunately, our drinks did not arrive for 30 minutes. The staff tried to make amends by giving us two drinks free due to the delay, but this was just the beginning of a frustrating evening. After the hot tub, we moved to the restaurant for dinner. When we arrived, we asked if heaters and blankets were still available for outdoor seating. We ordered drinks, but not everything on the menu was in stock and the waiter struggled to suggest alternatives. We also requested blankets. When we ordered our meals, we asked for the heaters to be turned on, only to be informed that we were seated under a non-functioning heater. After several inquiries, the waiter reluctantly agreed to let us move to another table, but we had to relocate everything ourselves without any assistance. Despite these setbacks, we remained optimistic, believing that good food could make us forget the issues. Unfortunately, the biggest disappointment came next. We ordered three medium tomahawk steaks, but received three steaks cooked to different levels: one medium, one medium-well, and one rare. I received the rare one, which was too undercooked for my preference. When the waiter checked on us, I pointed out that my steak was not cooked to medium. I sent back three-quarters of it without any feedback or comment from the chef. Desserts were then served by a different waiter, and I couldn't inquire about my steak until we requested the bill. The waiter who brought the bill told me, “It was done the way you asked for it.” When you’re treated well and receive good food, you can overlook a messy table. However, when the staff seems more concerned about mingling with their friends at another table than attending to your needs, it becomes too much. Fortunately, there are plenty of other restaurants in the area that would appreciate our £300 spending and provide better service."

The breakfast service was a mess on both days we tried it, with a 40-minute wait for a simple cooked breakfast despite having a pre-arranged booking. We decided not to make dinner reservations. Overall, I would rate the food a 2, the service a 1, and the atmosphere a 2. Voir le carte

This is a stunning place to stay, surrounded by picturesque countryside but only minutes away from the busy motorway. The staff are incredibly helpful, the rooms are spacious, and everything is very clean and modern, yet there’s a charming touch of nostalgia. The photo I took from the balcony this evening made it look like I was in the Swiss Alps. Thank you!

I had an incredible experience at this restaurant! The service was outstanding, and the scenery was absolutely beautiful. There was plenty of seating available, and the pool was clean and inviting. The outdoor areas were well-maintained, and the food was fresh and delicious. I never felt rushed during my meal, which made it even more enjoyable. Additionally, the massage I received was excellent, and I appreciated the thoughtful touch of being given fruit afterward. Overall, a wonderful visit!

"We were so looking forward to trying this place out for the first time tonight Friday 10th Nov. We are very disappointed. The service was lovely. The atmosphere was great. The food was rubbish, seriously overpriced for what you get. We ordered olives and scallops for starters. The olives and bread were lovely. The scallops were slightly undercooked, a bit wet if you ask me and the linguine was too wet also. We ordered the special steak. I insisted on no fat. My steak was literally just fat. My husband’s was ok, my son and I couldn’t eat more than half. It was literally riddled with fatty tumours. Seriously disgusting. The roasted tomatoes were not roasted at all. They were just warm. I don’t know. Add a bit of olive oil and leave in the oven a little longer. The chips were fine. My husband enjoyed the chocolate mousse. My and my son’ s sticky toffee was ok but the custard is warmed up in microwave. It makes it lumpy with a thin coat on top. Not great. But most importantly the table was sticky all over. Use an actual sponge with actual soap and dry with a cloth. This is the only way it won’t be sticky! We paid £150 with no wine. We had a complimentary bottle with the steak special. We won’t go again. The food was not at all the standard it should be. Maybe it was a bad day. The place was busy but this is not for us. We like gourmet food and we thought that it was what we were going to get. If you want delicious food then this place is not the one. The manager and our waitress were lovely but that just wasn’t enough. Talk to the chef and don’t serve disgusting steak specials. Parking: We were told we had to pay for parking when we got there. That should be all over the website. So you get one hour free which means you have to leave in the middle of the meal to pay. Inconvenient for everyone. Service: Dine in Meal type: Dinner Price per person: £100+ Food: 2 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5 Recommended dishes: Chips, Mousse Au Chocolat Parking space: Somewhat difficult to find parking Parking options: Paid parking lot"
