Lincombe Hall Hotel & Spa - Just for Adults

Lincombe Hall Hotel & Spa - Just for Adults

10/10 Excellent
"Lovely, spacious rooms, environment considered (no silly plastic cups/shower caps). I saw the pool and jacuzzi water being tested twice whilst we were there. Only thing was that we had to pay for parking, but that was because we booked with a third party. Book with hotel. Breakfast lovely, maybe a few more pastry/bread choices needed."

Abbey Sands Hotel

8/10 Good
"We had a really nice stay at Abbey Sands Hotel. The staff were friendly and welcoming and the location was brilliant, just a few seconds from the marina and lots of restaurants. Our room was spacious, tidy and the bed was comfortable. The cot for our baby was a lovely touch, and the bathroom was clean. We also enjoyed the bath! The hotel is a little dated and there’s no lift, which was a bit challenging with a baby and luggage, especially in the hot weather. The room was quite warm, but a fan was provided. The indoor pool was great, although we didn’t get to use the outdoor pool as it was under maintenance. Overall, a pleasant stay with a great location and lovely staff. With a few updates, it would be even better."
