"Lovely stay at Craigendarroch"

8.0

Lodges were clean and well equipped. Hotel facilities were of a high standard and the pool was lovely to use.

Extra charge for electricity was surprising. Never had this before and would prefer this to be built into the per night cost as most hotels do. I could understand if there was a meter for the sauna but everything else should be included.

"Second time, but the last time there."

5.0

No breakfast. Extra charge for electricity and heating. The swimming pool with a sauna was nice, but there was way too much chlorine (I had burning skin after 2 days). I can smell chlorine on my skin the next day.

The heater in the main bedroom was making a knocking or crackling sound all night. We wake up multiple times every night. So I couldn't tell that I feel relaxed after my holiday. Also, we did get a Lodge 72, which is shielded from the east, south and west sides by lodges, so we didn't get any sunlight. For this money, we could just pay for a week's holiday in sunny Tenerife for 4 people (which we will do next time).

The swimming pool was fantastic! Lounge and restaurant lovely. Lodge had everything needed and felt secluded even though in large resort. The sauna in the bathroom was a welcome addition aftee cheering on all the runners at Run Balmoral and the snow showers.

Only downside is paying extra for electricity, when paying so much for a lodge stay already would be better if it was included.
