Amazing

Best spa i have ever been to. Been to alot of spa's up the north of england but this one blows them all away, low wood offers a budget and more exclusive packages that suit your needs. All areas were clean to a high standard and the on site resturant and bar are a bonus. Breakfast was more than what most places offer.

Underwhelming experience parts need updating

For the money this hotel charges you expect the overall experience to be much better. Situated on a noisy road the windows were droughty and had back mould on the silicone, the bathroom tiles needed grouting and the room felt tired, parts of the hotel felt luxurious but this didn’t run through the whole hotel unfortunately. Our experience was underwhelming, the W restaurant served excellent food, but the staff lacked experience and had to ask the kitchen about ingredients twice during us being served. We won’t be returning to this hotel as I feel there are better establishments in the area which offer better luxury for the same sort of money.

Birthday Bliss – Rainbows, Relaxation & a Spa for All Weathers Stayed for a birthday treat and it couldn’t have been more magical! Even with mixed weather, the spa was perfect—steamy outdoor pools with stunning views of Windermere, and cosy indoor thermal rooms to warm up in. We even saw a rainbow over the lake while relaxing in the hot tub! Staff were lovely, the food was great, and the whole place felt like a luxury retreat. Rain or shine, Low Wood Spa is a dream. Can’t wait to go back! 💗

It was a wonderful stay, the only thing I can pick at, which is so minuscule is the fact there is such limited times on the spa use. Even then, I’m being picky. Everything else, I can’t fault, one particular thing I have to mention as a positive is the staff are exceptional. They went out of their way, nothing was too much trouble and they were always available to help or let you know anything you had questions about. Overall, we are planning out another trip to the lakes and this is a possible choice
