Cairndale Hotel & Spa

I was gifted a spa restore and retreat package which included full use of the spa facilities and 2 course lunch. The spa reception, cafe, changing area were beautifully decorated and attention to detail was noticeable. The changing area was on the small side and was glad we managed to only have another couple of people in at the same time otherwise it would be uncomfortable. The added touch of being given a hessian branded bag with your robe, towel and slippers was appreciated. All of high quality cotton. Heading down to the actual relax and spa area the spiral staircase may not be for everyone but what’s at the bottom is worth the trip. Again attention to detail of how the area is decorated, layout and facilities is amazing. There were plenty of options for heat facilities, ice bath which was a great touch and the pool with various jets. Unfortunately the hot tub was off due to maintenance issue. All staff were happy to help and very pleasant to deal with. Lunch options was great and the quality of food was high and so tasty. Highly recommend your second course being on the exceptional desserts! A downside for us was no drinking water facilities, you had to keep getting a staff member to provide you with a small glass of water each time. When you are in hot facilities where you should keep hydrated this was a bit of an inconvenience. We also felt the prices for any add on treatments was pricey. In saying all of that if you are looking for a spa day during the week is a reasonable price when including a lunch and would definitely recommend a visit.

The spa experience was amazing! Everyone was very polite and welcoming from the moment we entered the spa. However one of the males down in the spa area was quite rude and seemed uninterested in making sure we were looked after. We would still come back but it put a dampener on what was supposed to be a good day.

A group of us (5 girlfriends) had the best of time! The staff was exceptional and Anthony in particular was the greatest of host. We felt likre nothing was too much. The spa is exceptional and definitely out there with the best ones I have experienced in Scotland!
