comments Our stay was ruined by the cold . We stayed in the Lodge House . There was no heating in the bathroom - the tiled floor was so cold one could not stand on it comfortably for any length of time. The temperature in the bedroom itself was barely adequate - an old electrical heater was supplied - not what I would expect for a room which cost almost £200 a night !! When this was pointed out the next morning I was advised that they were aware there was a problem with the heating and that is why we were given a complimentary bottle of "Champagne". Hardly compensation for ruining what had been expected to be a very special treat. I would be interested in your response - I had intended writing to you now we are back from our holiday , this has saved me the time.
Hotel Response:

Good Morning Ms Douglas Firstly I apologise for the delay in replying to you . I am so sorry that you did not enjoy your stay in the Lodge and this should have been picked up when you stayed. There is a heated towel rail in the bathroom and this is normal bathroom heating. I am sorry that you felt so cold and December was an very unexpected cold spell for Ayrshire and indeed Scotland. I will correspond to you via your reservation method and invite you back to stay again, where we will hopefully convert you a very happy Enterkine customer. Regards Angela Tremble General Manager

comments We were very happy with our room annd the standard of the cuisine. We thought it represented extremely good value for money. Our only reservation was that for a hotel promoting itself as convenient for Troon ferries and Prestwick airport, starting breakfast at 08:00 was rather late particularly (as in our case) we needed to be at the ferry for 09:05 for the 10:05 sailing. This meant that breakfast and checking out was somewhat rushed. We got by due to the good cooperation of your staff.
Hotel Response:

Many thanks for your kind comments. We take on board the need to bring the breakfast forward which is no problem if we can have a little prior warning. We hope to welcome you back in the future. Angela Tremble General Manager

comments The welcome was outstanding and genuine. Service excellent throughout. Cooking very accomplished although serving several courses on slates did not complement the formal white glove service nor the refined surroundings. Music somewhat repetitive and intrusive. WE would still choose to stay again due to the charming people and surroundings. Thank you.
Hotel Response:

Thank you for your helpful comments .We have taken on board the repetitve music and that has been dealt with. We look forward to welcoming you back to Enterkine. Angela Tremble General Manager

comments My only criticism would be that the size of the bath towels does not match the other comforts of the hotel. I am sure they were bigger on previous visits. Even the towels at the Premier Inn we stayed in before Enterkine were bigger!
Hotel Response:

Thank you for your comments, bath sheets are usually supplied, I hope this was only a one off. Angela Tremble General Manager

comments We much appreciated the upgraded from the nearby annexe to the main hotel, at no extra cost. Also, the evening meal was excellent, deserving of rosettes. However, a tiny criticism is that the grand piano was badly out of tune and in need of some "TLC" servicing (but this only because I'm an amateur pianist). Otherwise, everything else was excellent, the room, the staff, the views, even the real wood lounge fire!
Hotel Response:

We agree the piano is not always in tune an "age" thing. We have it regularly tuned but doesn't last ! Does anybody have a grand piano that needs a new home ? ! Angela Tremble General Manager

comments This was my first visit to Enterkine and I cannot speak highly enough of it. Due to a flight delay we arrived very late at night, with an exhausted one-year-old in tow, and had to set off again early the following morning. Our room was a fantastic size, with plenty of room even with the cot and all our luggage, and an equally spacious bathroom. After 10 days in Italy struggling to bath Daniel in a shower cubicle, it was lovely to have a full bath as well as shower. We had such a good night's sleep - the bed was supremely comfy, it was silent outside, and the curtains so thick I couldn't see my hand in front of my face. In the morning we had to leave before breakfast service started, but had been told that the night-porter would bring us what he could. We came down to a table already set up with highchair, and were brought tea and coffee, cereal, fruit juice and toast, plus a refill of milk for Daniel's Tommy Tippee. All in all the staff at Enterkine could not have been more helpful to us. Even though we were there for such a short time we were made to feel very welcome and nothing was too much trouble. I had always thought of Enterkine as a lovely place for a weekend break, and fully intend to try that too, but would strongly recommend it for airport stopovers too.

comments The Woodhouse Lodge is a stunning, sumptuous and secluded hideaway. The attention to detail was beyond reproach, with a staggering level of service maintained at all times. Moreover, the food, at both dinner and breakfast, was exquisite - Chef is deserving of his reputation. Overall, possibly the most amazing hotel I've ever stayed in.
