Fantastic Facility

Great stay. Top class facility. Music (live and sound system) in the bar at evening a bit too loud. Could be turned down a bit. Had to talk loudly and lean in to hear people. Takes away from relaxed atmosphere

Galgorm stay

Stayed for 2 nights for my gfs 30th. Lovely stay sheperds hut was very chill and serene. Only problem we had was when we ordered a takeaway from the Galgorm, we ordered a curry sauce and it was laughable what came. Apart from that everything was brilliant, thermal village has everything you could want. Plenty of options to choose from and the celtic sauna infusion was an enjoyable experience.
