“RELAX AND PAMPER”

Reviewed 11 March 2013

Spent a very enjoyable 3 nights and indulged in a lot of pampering....scrub, massage, facial and mud wrap. The times for our treatments was changed from our original booking (and confirmation). Dinner was delicious but it was a set menu each night and not a cheap option. Port Elliot is an easy 15 minute walk and has many interesting shops... More

“Beautiful but Uncomfortable”

Reviewed 26 February 2013

My partner and I were initially enchanted by the beautiful grounds and charming old building, we had a very romantic room on the top floor ande were looking forward to our stay. Thankfully we only booked for one night as it was the most uncomfortable night I can remember. Being on the top floor in the middle of summer one... More

“Be sure what you are signing up for -”

Reviewed 24 January 2013

Our overall experience was good but there was a hint of "Fawlty Towers" to the whole experience. Our booking for a treatment had not been registered in the system, make sure that you get a confirming email! We had not realised that the meals were ll vegetarian (and delicious) and we had not understood that we did not have an... More

I had a wonderful two night stay at Authenticity. The house was very warm and welcoming, the interior decoration elegant and appropriate - a little like a nineteenth century interpretation of classical architecture, updated sympathetically for the present day - lovely gardens that worked in well with this kind of design aesthetic. The food was just so delicious. Obviously the... More

“Beautiful, peaceful stay.”

Reviewed 20 November 2012

I had a wonderful stay at Authenticity, and will definitely go back. I purchased a 3 night stay on a deals website. It was a very significant reduction on the usual rate and having stayed there I now realise what amazing value it was. The usual rate is also ok, maybe on the slightly expensive side. I had a huge...

I have just had a wonderful 2 nights at Authenticity. The staff are all lovely and extremely helpful and service orientated. My facial and body wrap was superb.

“cheep deal stay”

Reviewed 12 September 2012

Authenticity offer a good service but offer the cheap deals like many businesses today. There is a pattern that the cheap guests are never happy and i find it interesting that reviews are soo contradictive. One should not listen to any of them as it is just a personal opinion and one does not know the writer. It seems the... More
