Fantastic scenic experience with wonderful staff who were eager to ensure our comfort. Dinner at the restaurant was divine and capped off a lovely stay. I had some personal discomfort with the type of spring mattress in our room, however, overall we enjoyed a comfortable and relaxing stay.

We have been to Raithwaite Hall before and it was precisely the same as the last time we came. It is a fabulous venue/location. The only slight criticism I would make is that the room we stayed in (407) is becoming a little tired.
