Very mediocre
A very average stay. I wouldn't say this hotel is anything to write home about, the entrace is lovely and modern but the further you get into the hotel the more dated it gets. Our room was nice enough, if a little confusing to get to the first few times - down some stairs, through some corridors, then up some stairs, through a few more corridors, up to a final staircase and then down the corridor to your room. One of the staircases didn't have a lift so that was a bit annoying when checking in with our bags. I noticed that they did have luggage carts but we were never offered any assistance. The biggest annoyance is the spa, you can use the pool for 2 hours in the morning or 3 hours in the evening. This does not include the "thermal journey", it honestly just seems a little bit tight to charge £12 per use on top of the price of the hotel. I've stayed in many spa hotels and I've never has such limited times to use the pool. Overall it was a nice enough stay but we probably wouldnt go back.

Disappointed
We originally booked for 2 nights but had to cut short the trip as my partner was bitten by bed bugs and left her with bites all over her ankles and back of her legs. The room was very dated and bathroom basic and unclean in general.when paying a good price for a room u expect good standards. A shame because the hotel grounds are beautiful and restaurants very stylish and view from room was impressive

Fantastic stay
Fantastic stay at the winander club. Service was brilliant and all staff very friendly and helpful. Room was beautiful and to a very high standard. Breakfast was a particular highlight. Good choice and excellent quality. Be warned that not booking directly through the hotel incurs a £12 per night parking charge. We also did the thermal journey in the spa which also included lunch in the blue smoke on the bay. Food was amazing and well worth the money.

Amazing spa
Beautiful spa and excellent service. Breakfast was a little chaotic and walls are quite thin so could easily hear other guests but otherwise would highly recommend. Bonus it was dog friendly

Wonderful Hotel
The Low Wood is a wonderful hotel. We were very impressed with the friendly staff and level of service. The location is spectacular. The decor and level of comfort in communal areas is excellent. The only problem was irresponsible dog owners who hadn’t even registered their dog with the hotel and left it alone barking in their room for a very lengthy period This was sorted when staff were made aware of the situation.
