This spa is not worth 1 star!

After being told my party of 7 could turn up Sunday and use their pay as you gym spa pass and then have afternoon tea without needing payment. So we were all set rang today to book a treatment to now be told we are unable to go as they didn’t book it in. I managed to get a call back from the so called manager who more or less told me we were not told that and he could not accommodate us so bang goes my birthday treat as now too late to book anywhere else.

What a treat

After a couple recent positive visits for food and drinks I thought we could arrange a long awaited family get together to Celebrate so many missed special occasions over the last few months .. we decided to use the marquee area ( even though the rest of the pub take hygiene VERY seriously). Ben and Kerry suggested a buffet due to numbers, I even met with the chef to choose options ! Boy we were not disappointed.

Not worth the money - not a luxury experience.

The Leisure facilities were not what we were expecting for a "spa" more like the local swimming pool. The prices in the restaurant were not reflective of the food or service. The room was like a premier inn but the bedding was ancient. The spa treatments were not luxury, the staff were nice, but £42 nails were all smudged on the way out as we were moved along before they dried. By this point we had already decided we were never going back and had another event to go to so left.

What a disappointment it turned out to be.

Starters arrived and although not the best in the world were edible. 7 of the 8 mains arrived and people were waiting for the 8th before tucking in. However after 5 minutes or so, we had to chase the waiter for the outstanding meal. This arrived after a few more minutes on a stone cold plate with no apology whatsoever.

So very disappointed

We dined there this evening! My partners starter & main course was ok but my food was hugely disappointing. My starter was smoked salmon with prawns “ and the salmon was dried around the edges plus the prawns where tasteless and a strange shade of green “ I understand it was ment to be a verde sauce” but the presentation and taste was yuk!! Partner main lasagne & he say was just ok! The pasta was hard.

Not good enough ?

We had been to a canal gala and drove here for a late Sunday lunch. We were met by a lady who said we could sit at any table that hadn`t got a reserved notice (we are not stupid) and she would follow us through with menus. We found a nice table for two and waited and waited for the lady to appear. We were completely ignored and yet people arriving after us were shown the specials board and given menus. We eventually left without either food or drink.

An Unmitigated Disaster

The Wedding ceremony: The room for the ceremony was not set up as requested by wedding couple - this was for personal reasons suffice to say they were important. The wedding partys flowers were lost - I was asked by a member of the staff if I knew where they were! And I was a guest! At the time of signing the register, it had gone missing, dispite being provided the day before ceremony. Before it even began, the bride (quite understandably) was in tears due to ineptitude of staff.

Good value lunch

Nice cosy pub with a real fire. Friendly service and good value pub grub cooked with pride. I can recommend the chicken breast in white wine sauce. Good atmosphere, home cooked food, lovely warm log fire. Would recommend. Excellent value Pool table and darts available.

Awful stay at the Cottons hotel

Dirty beds, ants and loud rooms. Over booked rooms (and keys to said rooms given out to multiple sets of guests!). Other guests starting fights and stealing. Items missing from food order at breakfast. This is NOT a four star hotel. I wouldn't stay again even if it were given to me for free. Sorry.

Disappointing once again

Alarm bells should have rung large sign outside advertising for chefs, service could not fault, starters pork pie and a garlic bread hot ok. Main courses not so good chips more like roast potatoes, cheese and onion pie Luke warm in middle very uninviting. ploughmans appeared to have been around a while ham dried up. Ham and eggs nothing special very salty.
