Liked it a lot but flawed

Really enjoyed our stay but the bathroom was awful. Like something from a hospital 😬. The La Labo toiletries were lovely though. Morrison Room is FANTASTIC. Pool area was clean and v relaxing. Breakfast delicious. Heard a LOT of apologies from various employees to guests, including some for us. It just seems kind of chaotic, food service is not well managed anywhere except Morrison Room, but then everyone seemed really nice at the same time. I’d definitely go back - just don’t go if forgetful service bothers you.

A perfect getaway for a small family

We were very impressed with the very friendly and welcoming staff, the beautiful surroundings and the food. We arrived a little bit early, with our toddler. They managed to accommodate us and while we waited we were at the strange time just after breakfast bur before lunch. One of the staff members went off the kitchen and managed to get some pastries for us which was really appreciated. The team seemed genuinely interested and friendly and we felt very at home. The meal in Kathleen’s kitchen was lovely, again great service and food prepared with passion and care. The cocktails at the bar were unique and very good. The property is extensive, very well kept and really interesting with loads to explore. We’ve stayed in a few 5 star hotels at home and abroad, and this is definitely right up there. It’s a real gem. I’m looking forward to our next visit!

We fancy!

We’ve never stayed at a 5 star hotel before so felt a bit out of our element. No one treated us as such though. The staff was amazing. The place was beautiful. The meals were incredible. You got to learn the history of the place in multiple ways. Location would have been easier if we’d had our own car, but it was well worth the extra effort to get there via taxi/train combo.

Not as luxurious as I was expecting

I upgraded my room and it was nice and spacious. There were a few small things that weren't quite right with it, though. The shower gel was empty, some of the sachets in the tea/coffee box hadn't been replenished, etc. Reception staff were lovely, the floor staff in the bar seemed over-worked and (understandably) stressed.
