Great stay again. Friendly reception, and shown to our room which had been refurbished since we last stayed. Spa was excellent although we did not book any treatments. Evening meal at Club house was nice (we preferred the menu there) with excellent service. Highly recommended and we will visit again

Just got back from this hotel. From checking in to checking out the staff made you feel so welcome. We had the 8 course tasting menu for diinnee on Saturday evening and it was well worth the money. The spa was lovely and the grounds were lovely for walk. Room was very smart and a tv at the end off the bath was a nice touch. Would definitely stay again.

Room was stunning. So spacious and beautifully decorated. I think we were in one of the newly refurbished rooms in the New Hall. The staff we encountered and service we received was first class especially from front desk/concierge. Really professional and set the tone for the hotel. Great welcome and first impression. Spa was nice but not as relaxing as could be. The big water jet fountain (purely for display, not something you use as part of the experience) in the middle of the hydropool is really loud and unnecessary in my opinion. It's not on all the time thankfully but you can barely have a conversation over the noise and the music in the tepidarium is barely audible over the noise of the jets and that's in a separate room. Bit of a shame that you couldn't get a drink whilst in the main spa area. There is a bar in the Spa Garden part which staff mentioned but didn't say how we arranged access to. Just that it had to be booked before. Too late by that point. Might be worth mentioning this at check in so people could book access to that area if they wanted. Food and drink prices are bordering on ludicrous. £17.50 for a glass of Champagne. £20 for a glass of Whispering Angel. No starters in the clubhouse under £15... We don't mind spending money on a nice trip but some of the pricing was just silly and put you off spending at all. A bit of a short sighted strategy. 8 diners in the clubhouse. No one in the cocktail bar. No atmosphere in either unfortunately.

Lovely Spa, Food disappointing, very limited choice. Our suite didnt match 5 star expectations, windowless lounge area was dim & gloomy. Carpets stained. Thoughtful birthday card left for my wife but the Gluten free biscuits were out of date. Doubt we'll be revisiting

Hidden Gem
This place is a HUGE hidden gem! From start to finish, the service, staff, spa, value for money, everything was fantastic! We have stayed in many many hotels in the UK and this hotel has to be our favourite. The secret garden spa for an extra £25pp is worth every penny! We stayed in Tiplady 4 and it was perfect sitting outside as it was south facing so ordered a bottle of wine and nibbles before going to Nu Sana for an evening meal. Nu Sana food was brilliant and we had breakfast in the orangery. Highly recommend this place. We will be returning without a doubt

My husband saved hard to surprise me with a one night stay , I enjoyed it but I do think that a 3 course meal should be included in the price , so I’m afraid we will not be returning J.Holmes

Fabulous hotel
From start to finish an amazing stay. We stayed in Tiplady Lodge which is the cheaper option, but we weren’t disappointed. The room was a lovely size with different seating areas. The spa wasn’t the biggest but it had plenty going on. Our meal in the clubhouse was beautiful. From the clubhouse we wandered up the lit path back to the main house for cocktails in the comfortable cocktail lounge. Breakfast in the orangery was fabulous too, but mostly it’s the service which makes this place great.

What an experience. Faultless.
This is by far the nicest hotel we have ever stayed. They just got the perfect mix between a nice fancy treat but also making you feel really comfortable and relaxed. The staff were very friendly. We stayed in suite and the room was flawless. The spa was also the best we have visited in the north east. The spa garden was a lovely little extra too.

Lovely hotel with great staff and attention to detail. Spa area looked amazing but not long enough there to try out the facilities. Had a new hall junior suite with a great view over the grounds. Extremely large but felt it was a little dark with only the one window and limited natural daylight . The lights at night wasn’t the bright either. All in all a lovely place for a relaxing getaway.

Nice hotel, fab spa!
This hotel was lovely to stay in, the spa was great too. The only downside was the dining experience that we had in the Clubhouse. SO much that we cancelled our booking for the following night, but all the staff we met were very friendly and polite.

Spa day and overnight stay.
Went for a spa day and overnight stay. Paid extra for the spa garden, was a wonderful afternoon of relaxing, not too busy, plenty of areas to enjoy, the best spa facilities we have been to. The hotel is gorgeous, staff are great, rooms are fantastic, plenty of space, clean, comfortable, lovely view from the terrace too. Would definitely stay again, highly recommended.
