Stunning hotel with amazing pool and jacuzzi area and fabulous outdoor space for sunbathing.Shuttle service to nearby Hensol castle for gin distillery tour/afternoon tea. If you prebook dinner option, you will get 3course menu, otherwise it’s only ala carte on the day. Breakfast is excellent and weather permitting you can sit outside on the terrace with the view of the golf course.The only downside is, that it is in the middle of nowhere and you can eat only in the 1 restaurant as there’s nothing else nearby.

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities

The experience was spoilt by a lack of hot water in the bathroom. It had been raining heavily and we were soaked through, only to find that we couldn't have a hot shower before dinner. I've stayed in many hotels and this was the first time this has happened. It meant going down to dinner feeling grubby, which took the shine off the experience.
