peaceful atmospherewelcome fruitcharming touchdated spa
the room provided great views and offered a peaceful atmosphere that rejuvenated our spirits. i loved the little touches like a welcome fruit and chocolates, it added to the charm.
The spa seemed a little tired and could use updating. It felt a bit dated compared to the rest of the hotel.

The hotel staff welcomed me. Gareth always remained on hand to assist. Matt served a great meal the first night. The Douglas Suite included dressing gowns and slippers.
The hotel lacked a fridge in the room. The pool area was full of screaming children. The sauna had a broken heat element so I did not experience full temperature.

I found the Christmas decorations in the main building quite beautiful and cozy. The staff in both the bar and the restaurant were genuinely hospitable. I swam the following morning before my departure. I was able to walk through giant trees alongside the river from the hotel, despite the rain. The grounds are fine, too.
