We had a very pleasant stay at the hotel. It's an excellent value for money. Location is breathtaking. Facilities are superb. Spa is amazing offering a vast variety of treatments with very friendly staff. I highly recommend the wellbeing cabin. I enjoyed it so much so that will be looking for one nearby our home. Needless to mention that it is idyllic for golf lovers. My husband and son enjoyed playing the golf every day. Blackpool Sands beach only 15 minutes drive from the hotel and it's gorgeous.

Very pleasant hotel set in fabulous grounds. Only stayed overnight so didn’t experience the Spa or other inhouse facilities such as bar and restaurant but passing thru to our rooms found the ambiance very pleasant indeed.  …

My mum and I came for an overnight stay and spa package. The rooms are a little tired and the bedding could have been nicer but everything was very clean and the bathroom was really nice.The spa was great. Sauna, pool, steam room and jacuzzi. Everything you needed. The staff in the spa were second to none. We both had the raindrop massage with Tripi. It was just incredible. We have both had a lot of massages over the years and this has to be up there with the best. The quiet area is perfect for total relaxation.We had lunch and dinner both of which were lovely. Service was great. Again the main hotel is a little tired but it didn't take away from our trip.

The quality of the food was excellent. Lovely fresh produce and cooked breakfast. Especially liked the availability of plant milks. Room was okay/lovely shower . The golf course was well kept but didn't see any wildlife. Hope the management is badger and fox friendly. Beautiful surrounding countryside and Dartmouth is well worth a visit.

Enjoyed a few days away with my daughter, tried golf for the first time and the staff in the gold shop were so helpful, kind and reassuring. We had a few treatments in the spa which were very good, staff in the hotel were very accommodating. Only thing I didnt like was a beeper going off behind the bar all the time, must drive them nuts! It was a lovely relaxing hotel, fabulous grounds. Gym was very small but had everything in it. Loved the Sauna!!

Ideal spot to explore the area and to unwind and relax. The room was lovely but the bathroom was dated. Food at breakfast and evening meal was good. The pool doubles with the spa so under 16s are restricted to an hour's swim in the morning and late afternoon. The golf course looked challenging with big changes in height.

Great Spa. Booked via Trippy who was such a lovely lady. The receptionist (sorry, not sure of her name) was very friendly and keen to help and make our time relaxing and special. My therapist, Evie, was amazingly effective at giving me the most incredible deep tissue yet relaxing massage. She made me feel totally relaxed and at ease and not embarrassed when I snored😅🤣😅. Honestly - my wife and I had a very lovely day! My wife's therapist, Michelle was also brilliant making her feel truly relaxed, comfortable and pampered.Thank you all!Rich and Jo

As a group of 4, 2 mums and our daughters the spa was an ideal birthday treat. The food was nice, the spa facilities were all working and we're great. The staff were lovely to. We will be coming back 😁
