Spa was great and not overbooked which I was worried about. Hotel and spa both very clean. However, drinks and food overpriced as well as fire alarm light being very bright in our room which greatly interrupted my sleep,

Overall had a really good time although most of the steam rooms and ice rooms weren't operating. There was also building work going on until around 1700 but then stopped. However the place is a really high standard spa and breakfast was really tasty. We ate in our cottage from the Woodpecker menu which was excellent and easy.

Dimmer lights in the room were not working so I was either sitting in very bright lights or in the dark if they were too much. I had to use a small bedside lamp for ambient lighting. I was also unable to turn off the main lights from the bed with on switch broken off the wall, so had to cross the room to turn off the lights for bed. . During the night the fridge began to make an awful drone which woke me out of sleep at 2am. I had to ask management to come out and listen to it. He had to turn the fridge off and on again and lower the thermostat. Terrible night's sleep. Staff were very friendly and helpful, not their fault obviously.

Hotel was stunning at this time of year, had a dirty towel in our room, the soap dispenser didn’t work upstairs, we had pre paid the day before for treatments but where made to wait 10/15 mins on checkout to verify as they tried to charge us again. Staff are very quick to ask about allergies for breakfast but don’t offer any appropriate alternatives with the exception of terrible gluten free toast. For the price it could do a lot better

Service could have been slighter better with regards to tranfers between main hotel and forest accomadation given it being December and your expected to wear your robe to and from spa as only private members get lockers. Which isnt very appropriate when stayin away from the main spa itself.
