rushing water clean room helpful map underwhelming spa broken room shocking service
The room overlooked the river. The sound of rushing water was beautiful. The room was clean and warm. It included everything one would need. Maps were supplied for walks around the area.
The Brimstone spa was underwhelming. Four of the rooms for the heat and cold experience were out of order. The staff did not mention this upon check-in to the spa. I had a reservation for dinner at the Stove however the service was shocking.

helpful staff good breakfast slow service dark walk
the reception staff were very helpful. the pool was good. the restaurant provided lovely food and service at night. breakfast offered a very good amount of choice.
i found there was only one person working at the bar at 1630. it took 35 minutes to get our cocktails. the nearest pub requires a dark walk down country lanes
