While the hotel has beautiful grounds and comfortable rooms, the overall experience was marred by overcrowding and inadequate facilities. The spa and dining services need improvement to match the establishment's reputation. If you're looking for relaxation, I recommend checking for quieter times to visit.

My partner and I had high expectations for this hotel based on its reputation, but we faced several hurdles during our stay. The check-in process was smooth, and the restaurant food was quite good, but the service really let things down. The bathroom in our room desperately needs refurbishing, and the dining experience felt rushed and chaotic at times. While the hotel has potential with great facilities, we were disappointed overall.

We had a mixed experience at the hotel. While the shepherd's hut was cozy and well-equipped for our overnight stay, the spa facilities were underwhelming, lacking the amenities one would expect from a spa hotel. The staff were approachable, but the dining experience fell flat as options seemed limited and unexciting. Overall, it was a decent getaway but not worth the price we paid.
