“The hotel presents itself as a restful countryside escape, highlighting its spa and championship golf courses; however, recent experiences suggest significant inconsistencies in quality and service. While the setting in Shropshire holds promise, reports of dated facilities, cleanliness issues, and disappointing spa experiences raise concerns. For a relaxing or romantic getaway, and even a family vacation, closer inspection and perhaps tempered expectations may be wise.”

flaking paintslow service
This hotel definitely showed its age. the cracked tiles and flaking paint were quite noticeable. (i thought a 4-star hotel would have been better maintained). the food wasn't great either. The restaurant's atmosphere felt off, and the service was slow. it was like they were short-staffed or disorganized.
