Overall a wonderful 5 star experience. Lovely staff, beautiful architecture and stunning views over the hills and mountains. We booked this as a couple to give ourselves a break from the cities and have some us time. Spa and restaurant staff are lovely and welcoming. Rooms are gorgeous and have wonderful stone baths. Housekeeping is thorough and rooms are kept immaculate. Gardens and wildlife are beautiful, loves seeing all the birds and bats as well as meeting the house tortoises. A few tiny negative points which detracted from a full five star award: - we are non smokers and I have a mild allergy to tobacco. Our room constantly smelled of cigarettes, we couldn't tell if that's because the previous occupants were heavy smokers or the guests beside us were heavy smokers (the people next to us were always smoking in their porch which if course is right next to our porch). But it did cause me to have a bad cough whilst in the room. We also noted that some of the private dining areas also smelled strongly of cigarettes which put us off making a booking to use them. I did ask for a non smoking room away from smokers as part of my booking. It just wasn't a nice experience. Perhaps guests in the garden suites who are non smoking could be on one side and smokers on the other - this would alleviate future issues. - very loud club or house style music pumped out around 1pm, which if you are trying to have a nice lunch or hang by the pool is rather distracting, I have no idea why this kept happening during our stay, but we didn't enjoy it. Food and other paid services have a heavy government / service tax added to them, which I suppose is fair enough, but the food is expensive for what it is to start with. Expect a two course meal without any wine to set you back £45pp which is pretty high for what it is. It would be easier for the menu to reflect the price inclusive of tax so you get a better idea on prices.
