Great lodge with lovely views, very clean and nicely appointed. The staff were very friendly and helpful.
I was lucky enough to grab one of the rental units. A large one bedroom with a living room and full kitchen. It was very quiet and relaxing. The restaurant was wonderful though a bit pricey. I would recommend this beautiful property but try and get one of the larger units.

Disappointed. Long queue to check in, an overly solid bed and very odd light switches mostly not working in the room (no bedside light or way to turn off lights beside bed). However breakfast was lovely.

Good view and nice room. Unusual to go through dining room to get to the swimming pool. Gym very good.
From the outset the customer service was excellent. Lovely room with great view across to the water. Restaurant staff were so friendly and again the service was excellent. The menu was limited but what we had we thoroughly enjoyed. Perhaps a couple of traditional Indian dishes would be an excellent addition.
A ‘complex’ rather than a ‘hotel’ with facilities spread across an uphill area (transport available).
Modern touches, eg the wall pictures are your heaters (took a while to work that out and get warm - worth explaining on registration?).
Fabulous welcome and the staff all round where accommodating friendly and made the trip amazing, seriously the team everywhere were great. Dinner in Blossoms was fantastic and service was outstanding- couldn’t fault it and really recommend
It’s obvious that every single corner of this beautiful destination is well maintained and cared for. It’s not state of the art or brand new, but it’s beautifully looked after. It’s not ostentatious but super comfortable and high quality. The spa area was a fantastic treat. The food in Blossoms was outstanding. The team were discreet, yet warm and friendly. I couldn’t fault a single thing.
Lovely stay. Great location overlooking Rutland Water.

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
Lovely and friendly staff. Not enough attention to details though to take it to the next level. Cleanliness was ok but again, not enough detail. Helpful staff at front desk. New member Clara was superb. Restaurant was ok but did appreciate the hours. All not high end enough to be what it should and many areas needs jet washing and cleaning around the grounds, a lot of areas look worn and degrading.
