Great stay enjoyed the weekend

Hotel was lovely as was the lodge we stayed in, grounds were very clean and the staff were very pleasant. Inside the lodge was clean but there was a LOT of spider webs. I understand the lodges are in the country side but those webs had been there a long time they were caked in dust. There was 3 spiders in the bathroom and a couple in the sitting room which we didn't appreciate but that was the only downside great stay other than that.

Bowfield stay

Room was a superior. It need updating, the carpet was old looking as well as the furniture. The bathroom has been slightly updated with modern tiles. The bath panel is old wood and getting in and out of the shower is a challenge due to the width and height. Feel there could have been a few wee extras just to make it live up to the superior status. The pool and spa area are good. The restaurant didnt have any of the red wine in stock that we asked for, which was disappointing. The staff are great all really professional and friendly at the same time. We've been at the Bowfield many times over the years but sadly this will probably be our last.
