    Nothing.

    The property is in beautiful laid out gardens and very peaceful . Each room has its own entrance and small outdoor space and it is the perfect place to relax and unwind. All the staff are very friendly and helpful, from receptionists, to the barmen, the spa staff to the waitering staff, even the pool man makes an effort to make you feel at home. It makes a great getaway of tranquility. Easy to find too.

    Beach that is close isn't great and didn't have sunbeds from September. Need a car to travel around as the resort is in quite a remote area.

    Lovely pool area and close to the beach. Restaurant was exceptional and breakfast each morning was amazing. The smell of the whole hotel was lovely. Lovely cocktail and wine bar.

    Stunning castle and grounds - unique for 1 night

    Their should be more actually access to the original castle - even a tour or some other features open other than just the reception. Rooms are ok but need to upgrade things like a coffee machine for such a luxurious establishment.

    We loved the castle and the grounds; it's incredibly beautiful but as it was the last day of operation things like the spa and pool were not really operational. Some of the staff were really friendly and kind and some were already disengaged. The food unique and exceptionally tasty and the wine bar was very pretty.

    The water pressure in the shower could have been stronger and the balcony furniture could be new or more comfortable, but this is really nit picking, the place is wonderful!

    A beautiful place! Wonderful old castle, with beautiful gardens arround it. Lovely swimming pool and an access to the beach. The room was large and beautifuly decorated. The breakfast was great! A large selection including a selection of omelettes and crepes.

    The only room for improvement would be that the furniture in the rooms is a tiny bit dated. It’s perfectly charming but to get the rooms to the same standard as the main building would really be the icing on the cake.

    This place is a little slice of heaven, everything was amazing and so well thought through. Each little space felt so intimate and like there were just a few guests staying. There are so many original features which just make the place so charming!! The staff are super friendly and the food and drinks are delicious. The breakfast too… you must try a pistachio croissant!!
