We had a real nice stay . Beautiful place . Excellent service during our meals . Could have done with a wider range of time slots to eat and a bit more selection the draft pints . But other than that was great 👍

Lovely place but poor bedroom experience

Bedroom noise from corridor doors was horrendous. A mixture of people coming and going and the rattling of squeaky doors was really bad. Apart from this it was a nice place. Dinner and breakfast was good, and scenery was very nice. Lodge Room number was LR02 for info.

Accommodation dirty !!!

We stayed in Lodge 5, the room carpet and bathroom floors were really dirty as was the kettle and some of the furniture. We mentioned to housekeeping staff member and was told someone would contact us. This never happened and by time we checked out we still had not had any contact.

Fantastic stay in portavadie. The food in the restaurant was top quality and the spa was a relaxing, unique experience with amazing views. The room was equipped with everything we needed and had a nice scenic view.

Relaxed, reconnected and very happy.

From arrival to departure, our stay was everything we hoped for and more besides. Perfect location and facilities within the complex are excellent. We came for a relaxing, time for us break and that’s exactly what we got. Left feeling relaxed, reconnected and happy. We will definitely be back.

Great place, shame about the Lodge Cafe and bar.

Great place for a break, pools and spa are brilliant. We stayed at the lodge which has really comfortable rooms. We stayed here before at the lodge which had a bar and cafe which was excellent. Sadly this is no longer open, which really is a shame, as you now have to go the main building for a snack or a pint during the day. Apart from that i can't recommend this place high enough.

Not much to do. Could make more out of the area available.
Christopher, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Lodge room was very comfortable, clean. Bit of a walk to get to restaurant from it if you want to have a drink first or have mobility issues. But top marks to hotel reception they organised a pick up from room & back when finished by a very pleasant & helpful young man called Pete. Only issue was my steak at dinner, it wasn't good & don't think it was rump either as said on menu Other than that food very good
Jan, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Butlins without the fun

We didnt get a single smile, and plenty of surliness. Owners clearly more interested in your money than your experience or the happiness of their staff. Felt like the most miserable holiday camp ever. Pool packed. Marina packed. Landscape exploited with all the money spent on plastic spa facilities and none on vegetation. A grey plastic hotel. If you live in a grey plastic house, with plastic grass and acres of block paved drive for your Evoque you'll likely love it.

Great stay- cottages cosier than ever

3rd time staying in the cottages- i think they might have added new windows to them or new heaters.. the cottages were wonderfully warm and cosy, making the experience even better than before. the pool is as magnificent as ever- lovely and warm. staff are very helpful indeed and fussed over every dog in the place. There's really nothing to fault here at all
karen, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The whole stay was amazing. Staff were really friendly, the spa was incredibly relaxing, and the cabin accommodation was perfect and in a really scenic spot. The only fault was the outdoor pools were pretty cold, but the weather was chilly generally during our stay.

The staff made our trip!

We had a wonderful 3 night stay, the studio apartment, dog friendly was perfect for us. Only couple of tiny maintenance issues. The staff were all so friendly and helpful, they made our stay special. Food was good for breakfast and dinner. Our only disappointment was Tarbert was totally closed! Got the ferry over which was lovely, but not even a cafe open so came back in next ferry.

The Shepherd's hut wasclean and comfortable. The restaurant was fantastic. Over the whole weekend everything was delicious. The spa was great. The outdoor facility was great. The staff were friendly and really attentive and willing to engage in conversation.
Thomas, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

The breakfast was good, however they would not deviate from the menu. I asked for an omelette, however I was told this was not possible as not on the menu - bit disappointed. Spa was so relaxing, could have stayed longer than the 2 hours allotted. Infinite pool - perfect. Dinner at night did not disappoint lots of choice and beautifully cooked. The only down side was the room cleaning. The bed in the room would be made up however if there was a used mug it was not cleaned, it was just left. Again minor but disappointing.
