I had a wonderful time at Formby Hall, especially enjoying the spa treatments and the beautiful views of the golf course. The food quality varied, with some meals being quite disappointing, but I appreciated the effort from the staff to make my experience enjoyable.

I had a lovely return visit to Formby Hall Spa, enjoying quality treatments and a beautiful room with a golf course view. While the pool area was pleasant, it became crowded and some amenities could use improvement. The dining experience was fantastic, but the bar area was too cold to comfortably relax in after dinner.
