    A week at the hydro
    I have just come back from a week at the hydro and all I can say is I feel fantastic and couldn’t have enjoyed my week more. Friends and family have been commenting that I’m looking radiant. I recommend the hydro to everyone looking to lose weight and even just to squeeze some…

    Absolutely wonderful.
    Went for the day with a package of treatments- the facilities are outstanding, the view is just stunning, the salad lunch delicious and the treatments professional and relaxing. Worth it entirely and can’t wait to go back.

    Amazing place to reconnect with you, amazing place to uplift your health, detox and rest!
    I have been to Hydro 3 times already and will go back next year! I love this place, the food, the treatments, the surroundings, the views … It's just perfection for me! The walks in the forest in the morning is a great start for the day and don't miss the ozone therapy everyday…

    It was absolutely GREAT ! Worth the money. I am suffering from IBS. The detox and treatments brought me back on track.
    The staff all are absolutely wonderful. With my IBS the kitchen catered for my specific needs and food was specially prepared for me. Not once did I have to send food back that was incorrectly prepared, which happens all the time at other places. All the staff always give…

    Hi Jenny, You've gone to the Hydro a few times. Is there a big difference between standard and basic rooms other than cost? Also, what is the best view to request? Thank you! I'm going for a week in December. Heather
    The basic rooms that I saw recently don't tend to have a patio. Other than that, room still looks very comfortable and the environment is so wonderful, you don't tend to spend that much time in your room anyway

    Is there a big difference between a standard room vs. a basic room for the sake of cost? I will be staying for a week. Also, which views are the best to request?
    Any Reviews in December ?
    Do you still serve fabulous lunches for visitors.
    Hi I've just booked to go to the Hydro at the beginning of February. Primarily to give up smoking (forever) and alcohol (for a week!). Would like to get the best out of my stay - not something I do regularly and expensive 'once in a lifetime' trip as I'm coming from London. I would really welcome any advice and/or tips to get the best out of my stay from anyone who has been before. Many thanks in advance! Charlotte
    "I think the more expensive rooms will be larger but my room for a single was fine"
    "I would recommend the new rooms as the older ones are quite noisy with the doors."
    "Suite is our personal preference but all rooms look onto nature"
    "My room was budget. Nothing wrong with it at all. Air con to keep warm and hot blanket."
    "All rooms are comfortable - I prefer rooms in The Vineyards which mostly tend to have balconies enjoying afternoon sunshine"
