We found that the premises was very good for the money. The staff were very good with politness.The swimming pool was good as was the steam room & hot room. The massage sessions ( my wife said ) was one of the best she has had. Window in our room was looking very tired as the latches were rusty & loose. The extracter fan in the bathroom did not work while we were there.Havinwrote of the negatives we still think that the whole experiance was one we would like to do again. The food for the evening meal & the breakfast was above what we expected & was exemplery. One more item .As well as a number of people that were there it took us a while to find the place as the post code given by yourselves only gave us the 'Blyth Rd' & not the actual hotel.
The treatments were really good, carried out by first rate staff - we had a facial and back massage. i doubt that these could be improved upon. However, the facilities are not so wonderful, especially when there are more than 12 people there! There is a decent pool with jacuzzi, both with tepid water. There is one steam room and one sauna. Both are fine, but easily bulging with bodies. The hot tub is really an outside jacuzzi - the water was hot, it was very relaxing, that is until more than four people want to get in! Unfortunately there are only 12 loungers around the pool (health and safety apparently!!!!!) and thus there are a dearth of places to sit. One group of 6 girls shared 3 loungers, whilst others had to patiently wait for them to become available. To add insult to injury, several spectators were allowed in, thus reducing further the available loungers! This needs sorting out. The bar just outside the pool area was reasonably priced, although lacking in variety of drinks. (but the house wine was cheaper in the main bar upstairs, for the same type).
We were on an overnight package, which included superior room and £5.00 off the evening meal per head. Whilst the room was acceptable, it could not be classed as 'superior'. Indeed, it reminded me of Butlins chalets as there were no less than 3 'service' doors for the plumbing, electricity and who knows what else! I have slept in less comfortable beds, but only when in cheap accommodation!
The food in the Normanton Inn was ok: the shared cheese platter as a starter was quite good quality, but the pies for main course were a mistake, partly because it was only half way through them that we realised that we had got the wrong ones. Whatever you do, or do not do, do not have the chicken balti pie! Why not? Try it and live to regret it!
The local ale CPH was pretty good, as was the price per pint.
Would we go again? Possibly yes, but only if we had the more expensive package which included a restaurant meal. I would go to the Titanic Spa in Huddersfield first and foremost, followed by Centre Parcs, followed by Thoresby Hall Hotel before setting foot in the not really a spa Clumber Park Hotel spa! That may sound a little harsh, but all the aforementioned spas have superior facilities to the CPH. There are one or two things in its favour: the staff are excellent, and Rufford Park and Clumber Park are on the doorstep for relaxing walks!
We really enjoyed it and felt it was good value for money, but the room was rated as 'superior' on our booking, and we didn't feel it was- we felt it was standard.
My boyfriend and I have been talking about getting a massage together for ages ! So when this spa deal came up we leapt at the chance to go. When we arrived we were greated by friendly staff and the offer of any drink which was great after a long motorway journey. The Spa was average sized but laid out very well I especialy liked the relaxation zone we used after our massage and were able to use all day after that if we wanted. the whirlpool outside was a really nice touch. The only thing I would say is the treatment seemed to be over so quickly. Given the price we paid and this included the use of all the facilities for the day I think it was really good value. I would like to sing praises for the food at this paticular Spa you are able to pre order the restaraunt and staff were lovely and the food was a very high standard for such a reasonable cost !
Lovely night away with a group of friends. Spent most of the day in the pool and jacuzzi, facial was one the best ive ever had. Couldn't fault the lunch (paid extra for) but meal at night a bit disappointing (£5 voucher towards cost of, supplied with deal) waited a long time to be served and couldn't get what we ordered, (they said they were changing the menu). Other guests attending a wedding were a bit noisy until the early hours, but this really wasn't the hotels fault. Definately would go again, if the deal was repeated, although not if there was a wedding on.
