From our experience Ardoe caters mainly for business clientele and no doubt weddings and functions.
We were pleased to be offered a spacious and comfortable accessible room because it had a bath.
One of the main attractions to booking this trip was to enjoy a swim. Whilst this was possible, half the pool was reserved for childrens lessons, which though understandable, did impinge on our enjoyment.
Additionally the spa is in need to care and maintenance attention....rotting wooden frames and peeling ceiling plaster to name but two issues; and the ladies drier never worked on our vistits.
Food, both from Blair's and Soapies was fine but generally pricey whilst compared to culinary standards. And seven pounds fifty for a pint of Corona we would deem as excessive.
However two positives were the breakfast buffet ,which offered an above average choice aligned with freshly cooked dishes and excellent scrambled eggs cooked to order.
The second positive was the friendly and helpful staff who without exception were a credit to the hotel. A perfect example was one of the housekeeping staff who spontaneously offered to help with out luggage on departure.

Had a lovely stay. Fantastic room with great shower. Only negative was that shower was a bit slippy and no grab bar
The food in the restaurant was quite expensive but really lovely. Our stay was enhanced by the fantastic barman in the lounge. He made great cocktails and was so friendly . It's a pity the hotel was so quiet when we stayed but it was a Sunday and fortunately we were with friends. Will definitely go back but during a busier time.

Lovely building in a beautiful setting. We went for a two night break for our anniversary and were in a classic room which was very spacious and the bed was huge and very comfortable. The pool was great, clean and relaxing with jacuzzi/steam room/sauna. Food was delicious with lots of choice at breakfast. The staff were lovely, friendly and helpful.

Room was lovely 3 issues though, toilet seat felt as though it was falling off the wall, toilet roll far too thin for a 4 star hotel and the remote control didn't work.
Garden areas require a lot of tlc, weeds growing everywhere, grass was shoddily cut. Garden furniture requires sanding and painting.

Beautiful hotel. Rooms are nicely decorated. Staff attentive and friendly.
Everything was really nice. We enjoyed our time away.
The evening meal menu in the restaurant was a little strange but the food was tasty and well presented.
There was coach trip staying when we were there which made it hard to get served at the bar.
