After looking forward to this romantic getaway unfortunately I can't help but feel disappointed by the overall experience.. Firstly the female at the reception rubbed us the wrong way as soon as we walked in - cold character who we felt to be unnecessarily condescending... On arrival at the villa we discovered that even though they are lovely they are... More

I wish to advise on all of the points that you raised: - cold reception greeting We do keep statistics on our property and that is one of the questions that we record. Over 90% of people compliment that they do get a warm greeting so I wish to advise that your view of a warm greeting is different than... More

IT HAS BEEN A COUPLE OF YEARS SINCE WE STAYED THERE, SO I WAS SURPRISED TO RECEIVE THIS REQUEST. Hopefully it has improved. There is NO under-cover car parking - there was a massive hail storm the day BEFORE we arrived (the hail was still piled up everywhere) and had we been there our car would have been severely damaged....

Re: The Tripadvisor review request The mailout was a Tripadvisor initiative and the wording was provided by Tripadvisor. We dont feel that saying about guests recent stay is relevent especially for those that stayed a couple of years ago. We have written to Tripadvisor and asked them to cease sending these review requests. If you feel strongly about it then... More

We stayed for a romantic weekend away and must say it was an almost perfect holiday! The fireplace kept us warm, and the breakfast on each morning was wonderful. Very highly recommend, and looking forward to our next visit there.

We stayed two nights at the Escarpment and loved their breakfasts. The staff were very friendly and easily accommodated our requests for massages which were very good. Location was very quiet which we appreciated. Suggested dining spots were spot on, Clancy's had delicious food and drinks with live music.

A 3 night stay at the Escarpment feels like you've been gone for a week, such a relaxing place. The villa was stunning, with a totally fabulous bathroom - loved that spa. It was a nice touch that they supplied candles, and bubbly and chocolates on arrival. Everything about the place is romantic. You can hear nothing but birds...and the... More
