Good - the spa and the infinity pool - lovely! The ladies providing the treatments were also great friendly, chatty, and you're left wanting more!
The bad - lunch. Can I get you tea or coffee? One tea and one coffe please. It arrives but how are we to drink said offerings? The couple at the table next to us took their lives in their hands and went foraging for the elusive cup and saucer. That returned, triumphant, happy to then enjoy their liquid delights. Dare we venture forth? We did but sadly no cups or saucers revealed themselves. Oh well, we'll ask, in expectant knowledge/hope they'd arrive shortly. What fools are! We ventured forth again and captured one desperate cup with it's saucer counterpart. But, we needed 2. What to do? We had to physically get up and approach the staff to then get what we should have had at the start of our meal. Not good!
But, there's more? More? Yes, gather close. It seems our meal should have come with a glass of prosecco each. Did we get ours? Did the table next to us? The last at the table next to us reminded the waiters of their omission and theirs arrived. Ours? Nope, nothing doing.
Oh, and the scones were dry and the service - yrs, you've guessed it - could do better!! I shan't mention the other couple who complained about their meal, who, having had it replaced had just cause to complain again.
The spa is great, the food?? Could definitely do better. Not overly impressed given this was a birthday present.

We attended a wedding in September. The room was decorated beautifully. The food was lovely, especially the sticky toffee pudding! Amazing! The bar staff were great, especially Harriet, Brandon and Ian. Would definitely recommend this venue.

Harvey, Harriet Ian and Bradon. Very good service, Nothing was too much and all were polite. In all the last drop village is a great place to visit and it made a great setting for our friends wedding.

Pricey and weddings come first
Spa facilities were good very clean and relaxing. Staff were very helpful.
Its mainly catered for weddings. We couldntbise some of the onsite facilities such as the pub as weddings were taking place. Think the hotel should warm non wedding guests that these areas may be out of use before booking. Thought this would be somewhere different to book but could only sit in the hotel bar where drinks selection ie lagers were restricted and expensive. This was a birthday treat and for the money spent 134 for one night could have stayed somewhere alot more relaxing and welcoming.

My friends booked this hotel on a 1 night spa break for my birthday. They know how much I love being pampered and it was a great present.
We arrived late and was welcomed at reception and checked in with no problems.
In the morning we went for breakfast and there was a full buffet available or you could order from the menu. It was delicious.
The spa was lovely a large pool area and then a private area for adults with an outside covered pool with rain fall fountain, sauna and steam room. It had a very relaxing atmosphere.
The treatments were lovely and we liked the relaxation area.
The therapist didn’t ask me any questions about what I would like to get out of the treatment or any areas to focus on or pressure. She just told me to get undressed and lie on the bed but the massage was nice anyway. I like to close my eyes to relax and enjoy the treatment but the therapist talked all the way through it. She was a lovely woman and I’m far to polite to tell her to stop talking.
We did have afternoon tea one vegan one vegetarian and me. We enjoyed our fizz and my tea was nice I just felt a little sorry for my vegan friend as it was very limited uninspiring and fruit on a stick.
I would recommend and return but maybe leave the afternoon tea.

Great service for dinner from the two men behind the bar who were brilliant!
Location did not have the rural views I thought it was going to have? The two men behind the bar serving drinks and indeed food were absolutely brilliant, friendly and put us at complete ease. They are a credit to your hotel.
It was obviously a busy evening due to a wedding reception?

I can not speak enough of the chef at the tea shop, sammy was so attentive to our needs for our afternoon tea the sandwiches were lovely and her customer service for a chef made us feel special will come here again just to see her.

We got a wowcher deal. Cracking value for money. Spa was average- hydrotherapy pool very nice. Spa treatments extortionate prices.
Room was dingy. Barely any natural light. 2 small windows- view was of a wall and a flat roof with yucky cigarette stumps. Beds comfortable, room clean enough.
Afternoon tea- no. Just not impressed. Bread stale- cakes ok but scones where rock solid and cold. :(
Unfortunately throughout the night I was sick! Now, i wont point the finger as it could of been either the afternoon tea or dinner. However, at breakfast I decided maybe something simply didn't agree with me- so i ate something. Yet again- about 40 mins later- poorly again! A very sad tummy im afraid!
Unfortunately on this basis, I won't be returning. However, grounds are beautiful, shops and pub are adorable- like a little village. Parking is adequate. Staff seemed very friendly.

Good trip
Spa was great, very quiet first thing, room was large and comfy. Food and drink good, friendly and helpful staff. Fitness centre is public, so I got chatting to some really friendly members. Hotel was nicely laid out, with lots of different styles of buildings. Very pretty.
It's always other guests that let a venue down. Noisy neighbours, and inconsiderate smokers outside our room at 2am. Reception staff acted immediately tho, and sorted it all out.

Just returned from our latest overnight spa break at Last Drop. We absolutely loved it! The spa facilities are fabulous, so relaxing!
We had the three course meal in the restaurant, the food is fantastic and the service is amazing, our server Sarah couldn’t do enough for us, her professionalism and attention is fantastic and rarely seen in restaurants anymore she is an asset to your team as I told her she was one of the reasons for our return!
This is our second spa break package and certainly won’t be our last, if I had to find any negative at all then the bar prices are a little pricey other than that our overall package is definitely value for money

My daughter and I have just had an overnight stay, including use of spa facilities, two course evening meal and breakfast. For what we’ve had it was a bargain and couldn’t fault the food at all. I found our room a little dated, the carpet needed a good clean. The bathroom also needed updating.
Spa facilities are great although the changing room also needed a good clean.
We couldn’t fault the meals and the staff were very friendly. I wouldn’t like to have paid full price. We would definitely return again on the same kind of offer but next time would request to change room.

Room was nice, I was in the courtyard a nice use of what may have been the old stable yard in bygone years - hanging baskets at a fountain etc.
free parking, we had a meeting room conference. Buffet lunch etc. All good.
Great full english breakfast

Went for a wedding which was beautiful. However, the bar prices were extortion. Food at reception not too bad, but the toilets stank! Lovely surroundings for pictures, but they need to sort out prices in bars and the loos!

I recently visited for a family wedding and thought I’d leave a review about how friendly the staff where when serving us are drinks/meals etc!! There was one member of staff a young girl known as Taylor who’s manners and politeness towards not just me but the whole of the family was amazing and she continuously tried her best to make the day as special as it could, through things such as dealing with a family members meal due to allergies, to being friendly and respectful towards everyone and for always having a smile! we would all like to thank Taylor and the rest of you for delivering an amazing day!!

I had a fantastic 45 minute back massage off Steph, who worked wonders on my knots & tension, & the new espa products are fantastic, i was made to feel welcome & was so relaxed. I will be back in 2 weeks for another massage

We stayed here two nights as a friend was getting married nearby. The hotel is in a lovely setting with good views, although also near houses and shops, it feels further away. The grounds are huge and lovely to walk around, with the ‘village’ shops / cafe / pub really making it feel like a quaint English village in itself.
Our room was a family room for 3, the furniture is a little dated but room was spotless and comfortable. No air conditioning, although we did ask for a fan at reception which they gave us as we were there during a heatwave!
Breakfast was a good selection of hot and continental and staff were approachable. We had an evening meal in the restaurant too which was very good and reasonably priced for this type of venue.
The spa is well worth a visit! We went later in the evening and it was lovely and quiet in both the main pool and spa area. We were able to watch sunset from the infinity pool and relax / swim which was a real treat. Pool areas have a good amount of seats around, and were very clean. Changing room had several shower cubicles and plenty space to change.
Overall, I’d fully recommend this hotel if you’re in the area or for a short spa break.

I have been a member for a while last march I had my first baby.
I started coming to the gym classes last June with Jason on a Monday and Helen Wednesday and Thursday.
Both have been great with me getting me back into the gym and building my confidence with getting back into exercise.
Classes are great too.
