Booked the treatments in advance on line as I was asked to do..and got confirmation. Yet got there and was asked to pick again? Then the lady came and said we have nobody that can do nails or toe nails so I had to pick something else. Very frustrating when you are expecting a certain treatment that has been booked. The treatments we got were fine.

The spa was fine. Not very busy, lovely staff who explained where everything was. My only criticism would be that the changing rooms could do with a revamp too, maybe this is due with the other work going on at the hotel. A good day.

The receptionist was wonderful dealing with our group of 11 and making sure we had everything we needed. I had 3 high quality treatments and enjoyed the use of the pool and the sauna and steam rooms as well as the dedicated spa relaxation area. We were given access to a separate spa changing area with its own showers which also enhanced the experience. I highly recommend this spa and hope to visit it again in the future.

Disappointing Facilities were just ok. Need a deep clean. Considering the amount paid for a day of relaxation the cleanliness of the facilities was poor. Treatment itself was lovely but that's the only aspect we enjoyed. Will not be returning and would not recommend Aldwrk manor for a Spa day.

I spent the day with my daughter which had been a birthday gift. Check in was a little slow as there was only one receptionist. The pool area was pleasant although there isn't much room around it for loungers. The steam room was 'broken' and so unavailable. Lunch was enjoyable soup, chicken caesars salad and cheesecake. My head and shoulder massage at £44 was rather overpriced. Massaging only the front area was somewhat pointless as that is a rather boner part of the anatomy. The head massage was more like a hair massage. I have had better at the hairdressers! I enjoyed spending the day with my daughter but won't be returning to the spa at Aldwark.

This was a birthday present which I’d booked for my partner so we were both excited and really looking forward to it and whilst the massage itself was very good quality,none of the staff at the spa made our time there a nice experience.We didn’t find them friendly or welcoming,they didn’t even smile and barely made eye contact so because of that we will not be returning to the hotel.

Really good however, not nice view to see cotton wool flying all over the gardens from the fan. Also everyone else had gone through for their treatment at 12pm and nothing was said to me while I was waiting, so I had to go up to the reception desk to ask and she then told me the therapist was running late. Therapist was friendly, nice treatment and the senior lady at the desk was helpful in giving me details for our spa lunch etc.

Myself and my husband had a lovely day the only downside was when we went for a drink in the bar and was met by a very unhelpful young man who didn't seem interested in our needs we also had to go and find someone in the first place.

The pool is fantastic, and a warning sign had been out our re a broken tile which was very good. I enjoyed the experience, but the only comment I would have is that we didn’t get robes, my therapist said these were extra. Also she didnt ask what type of massage I wanted, so it was far too gentle for my taste. She was very friendly though.

Initial Spa member of staff we were greeted by was rude and unhelpful. Robes not available due to “busy weekend”, even though this is part of the package. Relaxation room was not maintained, so had wet unmade beds. Treatments were not as described. Spa facilities needed maintainence, shower out of use, damage to the tiling in the pool. Jacuzzi not cleaned.

the spa is looking a bit tired since our last trip 2yrs ago, chipped paint in treatment rooms pegs fallen off wall in swimming pool so no where to hang towels and dressing gowns, people putting them on loungers so then no one can use them, also a lack of seating. The cafe area had some cloth seats which people had sat on in wet clothing so a few of us got wet jeans, perhaps not practical for this area. Some of us were told about the relaxation room and others weren't it was full of used glasses blankets strewn around and generally untidy. My treatment was good others said there's was rushed and nothing like an hour Some of us were told we had a private changing area for our party other weren't.

There were 3 of us and instead of one of use waiting while the others had treatments it was arranged to have 3 therapists so we could all have our treatments at the same time. They rooms were lovely, calming music, heated beds and we all came out of our treatments relaxed and rejuvenated! We were then shown to the relaxation lounge where we laid on lovely comfortable beds for as long as we liked! Simply amazing and my friends and I can’t wait to return!

The hotel is in a lovely setting. The problem is they are refurbishing it at the moment so everything is a bit mixed up. The normal restaurant is out of use and you are put in a small dining room. Dinner was fine but breakfast was chaotic. I think we all arrived at the same time but the manager left us for over 20 minutes before taking our hot food order...and that was only because I asked him. I have stayed before and I do think the refurbishing is making it a different experience than normal.

The spa is excellent with a lovely pool and very good therapists providing top quality treatments. The hotel staff are friendly and very helpful and rooms are clean, well kitted out and comfortable. The only negative I'd that the food is not 4 star hotel standard. Some of the meals were very basic and slightly overcooked and service was very slow at points. It took s long time to have our wine delivered to the table and on our second night we had to collect our own water from a central area I the dining room. However I would definitely use this hotel again. The village and pub are lovely (the pub food is a higher standard than the hotel) and the hotel is located in a beautiful situation with walking straight from the door.

We stayed in one of the suites which was absolutely stunning. The hotel was like a big stately home and you where made to feel so welcome. The bar area was filled with big sofas and chairs and tables and was just a home from home. Very relaxing.

Just small things like not being able to answer questions about the menu, slow service at times, different people asking if we wanted to order drinks after we'd ordered. Everyone was lovely and that's the only thing I think could be improved.

The hotel is in a beautiful setting, very peaceful & quiet. Lovely atmosphere,very relaxing. Everywhere was clean, some parts were tired & needed a bit of tlc but it’s an old building with lots of original features so it was to be expected to be honest. Our bedroom overlooked the golf course which was lovely, however we did have a problem with the tv working, the staff were amazing though & relocated us to another bedroom with no problems at all, in fact it turned out to be an Upgrade! We had a 4 piece bathroom suite, Juliet balcony and a mini bar which was free! The bedrooms are clean, spacious, all usual facilities, tea coffee etc present. The mattress could of probably done with an upgrade but was still ok. We ate in the restaurant, the menu has lots of choices & is very reasonable, the service was outstanding, every need catered for, the staff worked really hard. The meal itself was delicious and you weren’t rushed at all, it was lovely. The breakfast in the morning was self service with so much choice, again the service was great. Would definitely stay here again, 2 nights next time though!

Had a lovely overnight spa stay with my best friend for her 60th birthday. Had a super massage by a lovely lady called Caroline. We were disappointed when we had to wait 45 minutes on the Monday for our sandwich lunch in the bar and in fact left early and went elsewhere for afternoon tea. Also disappointing there was no dress code for dinner. People were coming into dinner in tatty jeans which made you feel you were in a burger bar rather than a smart hotel. The staff were super at the hotel. Overall a nice stay .

The staff in the bar lounge area were extremely slow seemed to keep disappearing. Lunch the good was nice but took over an hour for us to get it when the restaurant wasn't busy some other guests left, the waitress said it was because they didn't have enough of the lunch boxes they had to wait for some people to finish for more boxes!! We never got asked if we wanted a drink we had to ask for a jug of water we didn't bother asking for bar drinks as we could see other people having long waits and 2 ladies taking drinks back! Because lunch took so long some of our party didn't have time to use the pool etc before treatments. Our deal Inc.a bottle of rose fizz in each room but it wasn't there so we had to ask and show our booking confirmation, we had also booked dinner at 7.30pm and they had no record of this so we were offered a different time. Dinner was v nice and the staff were efficient. Breakfast was also good General cleanliness is not good carpets looked not hovered recently and dirty tables. Bedrooms also not particulary clean our bathroom had shavings in sink and a hairy floor especially round the edges, it's a shame as the rooms are very nice and the hotel in general is but there is a lack of staff training and management of staff.

How nobody noticed was beyond me ! so that but me my partner and another guest off the hot food so i just kept with the yogurt and some pancakes.
