Went on one of their deals, check in at 15:00 and check out by 11:00 the following day. Deal included evening meal and breakfast. Good Value. Check in was quick and polite. Dressing gowns and slippers are in you're room. Upon entering the spa, there was nowhere to sit, all loungers full, there isn't more than about 25 ish so... More

Me & two others spent the day & night here last Friday and enjoyed every minute of the experience. The hotel rooms are lovely, modern & funky and very clean and were cosy with nice views from the french doors. The food was also very good as we had lunch, dinner & breakfast and all were as good as one... More

We stayed at Lifehouse in early June. My husband was here for work, and as we live an hour and a half away I decided to join him in the evenings. Therefore neither of us could appreciate Lifehouse for what it is designed for - R&R. However my experience was relaxing and the rooms were modern and tastefully decorated. We... More

Recently stayed at Lifehouse overnight on one of their deals. Have stayed here once before just after it opened and once on a Spa Day. We wondered if, as the hotel has new owners, it would be as good. We were not disappointed. The staff were lovely and most welcoming. The treatments were great and the food was exceptional with...

This is our second visit to Lifehouse (first time was under previous management 3 years ago – which was mediocre). Enticed by an offer I thought I would take my wife on a relaxing two night stay in one of their Signature rooms since I remembered how beautiful the grounds were and how comfortable the beds were on my last...

We enjoyed a fabulous brief stay at this Hotel and Spa on 2 and 3 May 2013. We took advantage of a special offer from lastminute.com which included dinner, bed and breakfast. From the outset each of the staff we met was really pleasant and helpful. The room was attractive with a private patio. The dinner was excellent with the... More

My husband and I stayed for 1 Night on the 'Spring Escape' package last Friday. I had been once before just for a day trip so was excited to fully unwind and stay overnight. Some of the reviews on here have been mixed so I was hoping it would live up to my expectations... The room was excellent - beautiful... More

We stayed for one night for the "blissful break" deal. We arived at the Spa / hotel and were checked in without problems. Our room was great, large and clean and bright with our own little outside space. As part of the package we received a bottle of prosecco and a box of chocolate at our room. We went to... More

Booked massages for myself and hubbie as a well deserved treat after a hectic few months. Instead of booking a spa day, which compared with other spas in the area seem very expensive, I added on access to the spa facilities for an extra £15 each. If you are only planning to have a treatment, and a swim I would... More

I booked a "Pamper & Prosecco" Spa Day for me and my boyfriend through the Lifehouse directly. The hotel and spa is easy to find despite being a bit out of the way. The buildings are very modern which we personally didn't find were very inviting as we approached and didn't really fit in with the surroundings but granted was... More
