personal notegood massagestired pool
i appreciated the thoughtful touch of a congratulatory note in my daughter's room, a nice gesture for her exam results. the grounds were beautiful , and the spa treatments, specifically the massages, were really good. i found the staff to be helpful and kind.
parts of the pool area looked worn and in need of some attention , which slightly detracted from the otherwise wonderful experience.

beautiful groundsdated spacold room
the grounds were beautiful there.
The spa felt dated and overcrowded on my visit. every lounger was taken. The hydro pool operated on a 'one in, one out' basis.. it felt far from relaxing. my treatment did not last the full 60 minutes. The room was cold with a fan blowing. The bed wasn't heated, and the oil was cold.
