On arrival, the reception staff were extremely welcoming and friendly. Room was clean and tidy and beds were very comfortable so a great night sleep. We visited the bar for an evening meal, we arrived at 5:30pm but later realised that food was not served until 6pm, therefore the service on ordering the meal appeared somewhat disjointed the staff were very quiet and the servers may have been new to the venue as they appeared inexperienced - just required some communication to advise re the timings etc; that said the food was very good, well presented and delicious. Breakfast was upstairs and we received a friendly welcome and asked if we had eaten there before, we advised we hadn't and we were promptly told how the breakfast service worked, a much warmer reception than for the evening meal. Timings allowed for breakfast were short, however, we can understand for the summer months as different wedding parties may be booked. The grounds are lovely and we took a sneak peek inside the chapel, very pretty and we could easily imagine a wedding service taking place. We were only here for 1 night and overall enjoyed our stay, the welcoming reception team were, for us, the highlight.

Overall good stay but could be better.
Overall a good stay however the bar was cold, breakfast was ok, not great lighting outsde chalets...would have been nice for a bit of warmth in the chalet on a cold wet day...which would have allowed the heat to build quicker...

Hidden gem.
First time here, a half way point on our journey. Large complex as it is a wedding venue. When we arrived a wedding came out of the forge complete with a piper a lovely surprise to greet you when you arrive. All aspects were very good, the only addition we would have liked was a unit in the bathroom to place your toiletries, it was an accessible room with a wet room, the only twin room left as we made a late decision to book, a very minor point overall. Could not find fault with anything and I am hard to please. Rooms being refurbished in the near future. We shall be staying again.
