    Could do with more Coat hangers,in Hall bedroom & bathroom. Lack of privacy in ground floor bedroom. Lower bathroom could do with shelving,only place to put bits & bobs was on high window ledge 🤭.

    Everything.

    There was nothing that we could say we disliked

    We stayed in Lodge but had dinners in restaurants, excellent service. From start to finish of our stay was amazing.

    Water in houses went cold on second day. One of lower ground toilets was a little smelly, but could be a plumbing issue? Not bad enough to notice in the house - only if in toilet. Check in and check out times were annoying as we travelled for 4 hours to get there and couldn't check in until after 4 and had to check out by 10am which was very early, especially considering we had to clean over ourselves - hard to pack up kids, food, clothes, cook & eat breakfast, wash up after and clean over whole house and expect to have keys back in hotel by 10am.

    We loved the villas, the space, garden, cleanliness and layout etc. everything was there for our convenience. Bedrooms were stunning. Swimming pool and facilities in hotel were fantastic, infinity pool was amazing. Everything was clean and great. Staff in Doolittle were so friendly and attentive which is so rare these days. We will 100% be back.

    A place that's truly home away from home!

    The only thing we had an issue with was the front door. We thought it was locked from the inside but once you turn the handle down it unlocks. Our 2 year old was able to open it and ran out. So if you have small toddlers just make sure you keep an eye on it or put a chair at the door to block them from getting out.

    We booked in the hotel for breakfast. The food and services are very nice. We never waited too long like any other hotels we have been to. The staff are very welcoming and make you feel at home. The best part is the walk from the Villas to the hotel. About 10 minutes of walk through this beautiful forestry road with all the fresh air that gets you ready for the day. Once you finish your breakfast you can start your activities right from the hotel. Either do the walks yourself or you can go with the guided ones too. You get a map and timetable when you arrive which is very handy. I love that there is so much to do at your doorstep without having to travel further. Especially if you have young children (we have a 2 year old) it really takes away all your stress from getting ready and travelling further. We did at least one walk a day after breakfast and spent the rest of the time around the hotel or on the playground which is 2 minutes away from the Villa. My 2 year old had so much fun going through the woods or sitting in the water throwing stones and getting ice cream from the lovely lady in the coffee shop on the way back. My husband also spent a lot of time in the swimming pool both indoor and outdoor and loved all the walks in the woods! Another bonus point is the Nathalie's Pizza that comes every second day just outside the playground! They are so fresh and delicious. I highly recommend especially if you are a mom who needs a break from cooking but can also make sure your family are fed with nice and fresh food! This was easily the best holiday we had and really felt like a home away from home! We are looking forward to being back in the very near future!

    The equipment in the kitchen could have been better and there were some useful things missing such as a small sharp knife for preparing food. The shower pressure in one bathroom was also very poor.

    Woodland Lodges were really lovely. In a beautiful location and lots of landscaping around the houses was lovely to look at. Houses were spacious with very good sized bedrooms.

    The beds were very uncomfortable (hard like a slab of rock) & they do not supply mattress toppers. They give you an extra duvet to put under you & even with one it was still uncomfortable. For a hotel of this level this is very disappointing. It would have been nice if there were hotel umbrellas in the villas to use going to & from the hotel. I was very disappointed that I was charged €2 per towel at the pool. This charge is for people in the villas & lodges. Finally, the bar food was subpar. I would have expected a much better quality from this hotel.

    The location was great, very peaceful & only a 5 minute walk to the hotel. Options to walk through the trails or on the pathway. It was great to have such a big space in the Villa with the kids. The staff in the hotel were all very friendly & helpful.
