4/10 Fair

A little disappointing 😞
Our stay at Champneys Ashford this time wasn't as good as last time unfortunately. We couldn't enjoy the spa freely because of the restrictions on entry times for certain guests. Also, the chlorine levels were so high that everyone's eyes were stinging.
And on the second day, the jacuzzi wasn't working at all.
There were no robes in anyone's rooms so people were having to chase around to find their own robes.
The bedroom was filled with cobwebs and was quite chilly, but somehow I managed to get burnt by the piping hot towel rail in the bathroom. A bit dangerous!
As a married couple, we wanted a romantic spa break so booked a double room. However, we ended up with twin beds pushed together. So no snuggles for us unfortunately.
The breakfast was okay, and the staff were very friendly, but we waited over 45mins for our breakfast to be cooked which took us past the 11am checkout time, and then we almost missed our cab to the station. Let's hope they don't deduct my account for late checkout.
Unfortunately I don't think we will be back again. Although the grounds are beautiful, the standards seem to be slipping.
