    Kids breakfast same cost as adult breakfast when they obviously eat much less - so a light breakfast for 1 adult and 2 pre teens cost me £37! Minimal healthy food options for kids. Farm shop didn’t sell fresh fruit or veg.

    Clean Welcoming Great staff

    In short, simply excellent but the constant prizing of money from your wallet does get irritating.

    At the start of our break the wifi was fantastic, 120mbps+, there was then a torrential downpour for 12 hours and the internet connection dropped down to sub 3mbps in our area of the resort, I suspect that one of the meshed access points had failed in the rain, we report this over the whatsapp support chat but nothing was done. This was a little irritating as the weather was shocking for our whole stay and internet to entertain an 11yr old is pretty essential! The activities for kids are unnecessarily over-priced, £10 / child for den building for one hour using nothing but natural forestry resources. This was annoying and many other activities were over-priced IMO. The on-site farm shop was also unnecessarily over-priced, by way of example £2.50 for a tin of heinz baked beans. While the games room in the hub was absolutely superb, if you dare to be thirsty while you are using it and buy a cup of coffee you should be prepared for a £3+ price tag on a latte. Like me you would probably think this is a fair price until you receive less than half a cup in an already small paper takeaway cup.

    We stayed in one of the new 2 bedroom lodges, it was superb, well appointed with everything you could possibly require for cooking at home, the kitchen was amazing. TBH the whole of the lodge was nothing short of stunning, the jacuzzi was fabulous. We had an issue that the decking doors would not lock which we reported over the whatsapp support chat (manned 24 hours!!) and within 2 hours we had someone at the lodge to replace the lock, incredible service. I challenge you to find a better welcome pack anywhere on the planet.... sausages, bacon, cheese, eggs, mushrooms, potatoes, butter all locally farm sourced. And not just enough for one breakfast, as a family of three we easily got two hearty breakfasts out of it.

    Trying to find our way around when we arrived was really hard, and not helped because we were tired. Booking.com state it is the Highbullen Hotel at the Mole Resort, but the Highbullen Hotel doesn't exist anymore. You check in at The Hub and then get directed to your room which is not in a hotel! The TV was a bit flaky and buffered/stopped occasionally. The evening meal was a little pricey.

    The room was very comfy and the inclusive breakfast really good. The grounds were gorgeous and the deer hide a bonus.

    Given the care and consideration of all the touches the lodges the only thing that could have been improved was the bathroom products. In my opinion it fell short, despite having tiny bars of L’Occitane soap conditioner and shampoo. The indoor swimming pool and changing rooms - again by comparison to the rest - felt like a sports centre to me. Not at all premium. The bistro also felt quite lacklustre but that may have been to the time of day.

    Wonderful lodges very clean Very thoughtful local food place in fridge along with other touches Umbrella and torch available along with plenty of towels robes and slippers

    We were here on mini-moon and honestly had the best stay, can't really think of anything except we couldn't get an evening booking in the restaurant on the day.

    Room (loft suite) in the manor house was fantastic. Breakfast was delicious and a great view. We enjoyed the pools and that there were other activities on site. This was a treat mini-moon trip for people more accustomed to air b and bs and this felt fancy and a real treat 'living it up' without being frilly or over the top or super posh or feeling out of place.
