Such an amazing stay! The staff were really friendly and helpful, the room was beautiful with lots of little things that make a real difference - really big fluffy towels you can wrap all round you, amazing comfy bed, cosy dressing gowns and slippers to use for the spa. I will definitely stay again ...
