What a great place. Had a massage and the young girl was fantastic. All staff very nice. This was a present from my Bosses. I will definitely be going back . Thank you. The place was spotless ❤️ The food was very nice Staff just wonderful . Will be back x

Visited Summer Lodge for afternoon tea. The service was wonderful, very friendly with just the right amount of attention. The afternoon tea was tasty, fresh sandwiches and good cakes. A very enjoyable afternoon and we did not feel rushed. Will visit again.

My wife bought me a one night spa vacation. The service was impeccable from the moment we pulled into the car park! It never stopped being brilliant. Friendly courteous staff who seemed to be there without being pushy! Lovely massage in the spa. Wonderful room. Bathrobes to die for! Evening menu in the main restaurant was not to our taste. However we ate of the bar menu in the lounge by the open fire! Cooked breakfast was great! The chocolate extras in our room wishing me a happy birthday was a really nice touch.

This is a superb hotel very comfortable and with an excellent restaurant. However the stay was made by the staff who were superb in all respects with their attention to detail. We enjoyed using the spa facilities which were very good. We had a thoroughly enjoyable stay.

An extra friendly greeting in reception and a short guided tour around the buildings so we can get our bearings during our stay, set the scene for what was a very enjoyable break. When staying in a five star I find myself moving into ‘super critical’ mode. There are certain expectations considering room rates that one expects whether or not it is a qualification for those stars. Standing in a fairly narrow bath to have a shower and disappointing pillows on an otherwise comfy bed, having to move a kettle to find a plug rather than have a dedicated station to make a coffee and a what I consider a limited buffet breakfast are where my criticisms begin and end. I must be clear, these are not things that I consider aggravating they are just critical observations I make when comparing to other places I have been lucky enough to stay on a similar level. The wife really enjoyed the spa and treatments on offer and it must be said that all the staff were great, attentive and considerate, faultless to a person. Now, there is something quite extraordinary about this hotel that I feel more people should know, and that is its restaurant, we were lucky enough to have made a reservation on Saturday night, it was not fully booked but it should have been if the food they served to us was a typical example of their fare. Every aspect of our dining experience was nothing short of brilliant, the service was perfect and the food was astounding, my Salmon / Beetroot starter has to be one of the best things I have ever eaten , it really was that good! I wanted to give the chef a big hug for making my day, the food and service was of a level that many other five stars should aspire to. Well done the Summer Lodge Hotel.

Our room was excellent and everyone looking after us added extra touches that went above and beyond for myself, my husband and our chocolate lab.
