Gorgeous winter stay, just some small suggestions to elevate it further

Pros: The pool cabin was away from the rest of the facilities so you had privacy and your own space which was gorgeous with beautiful Yorkshire views. The food was delicious, very rich but delicious. Breakfast had a lovely selection. The hot tub is huge and at a great temp for a winter stay and we had plenty of logs to keep the wood burner going all evening, it was nice it was all set up for us just to light. I would highly recommend this place to stay

Cons: We had some drainage issues in the cabin so noticed that one toilet wouldn't flush great and the shower overflowed with water. It was quite late when we discovered it, around 11pm so we didn't report it until the next day on checking out. The wood burner area was nice but perhaps could be tidied up a little better and made to feel cosier. Small extra amenities would elevate this stay, like indoor and outdoor slippers in the room, so you could switch between the indoor and outdoor spaces without putting your own shoes back on
