Relaxing and magical

Have been to the galgorm 3 times now and love it more and more each time, the best place to go for a relaxing and magical break especially when you book one of the lodges, I’ve stayed in the shepherds hut and the forest den and both were so magical and incredible! Have also stayed in one of the cottage’s which are so handy and comfy and equipped with everything you need! I usually get take away when I stay and the food is soooo good and very reasonably priced and super quick service! Can’t wait to go back for another break 😍

Fantastic Facility

Great stay. Top class facility. Music (live and sound system) in the bar at evening a bit too loud. Could be turned down a bit. Had to talk loudly and lean in to hear people. Takes away from relaxed atmosphere

Galgorm stay

Stayed for 2 nights for my gfs 30th. Lovely stay sheperds hut was very chill and serene. Only problem we had was when we ordered a takeaway from the Galgorm, we ordered a curry sauce and it was laughable what came. Apart from that everything was brilliant, thermal village has everything you could want. Plenty of options to choose from and the celtic sauna infusion was an enjoyable experience.

Kathryn, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

An ok stay. Room for improvement

Our stay was ok, the hotel was extremely busy and I don’t feel we got the good out of the thermal village as it was so busy, thankfully I had treatments booked which made us feel more relaxed but it’s very pricey when we had already spent so much for the stay but the treatments are what made our stay. We also got woken up quite a few times during the night with loud noises from the floor above which was the main floor. It continued the whole night. I also found that the staff were extremely slow when it was so busy and I had to repeat answers to the same questions over and over again and felt that they didn’t seem to be listening and forgetting that they had already asked the questions which added to the long delay for other people standing behind us. There were plenty of staff but it seemed like they didn’t have enough stations to deal with the amount of people to be seen to, staff there to deal with them but nowhere for them to process it. The rooms were also extremely warm and only Dyson fans to blow the warm air around which was uncomfortable. It was also unusual the floor layout to find your room we were on the second floor but had to walk a good bit to find the lift to go down and still didn’t find the stairs, we did find stairs but it would only bring us to certain floors and it wasn’t ours. maybe just us but it was confusing
