Nice enough but could be better
Brackenridge Country Retreat & Spa的点评
点评：We stayed in a studio room.
Initially, I was a bit hesitant due to previous review however my first impressions were good. The room and space was lovely! OK, get that the space is dated and somethings need tending too (paint scratches, mould on the bathroom tiles, lichen on the outdoor wood trellis etc). But
On the plus side, room size was good, great natural light with a nice grassy olive tree outlook, and there was a workstation desk on one side and a bedside tray table on the other with 2 comfy chairs at the end of the bed for watching telly. The bedside lamps tend to shed ample light (so if your partner needs dark to sleep, bring a book light). The lighting is adjustable but not too bright. There is a quiet heat pump should you need. Parts of the bathroom has adjustable underfloor heating. Our toilet was faulty as it carried on ‘hissing’ after a flush (my partner fixed it after a midnight flush) but Brackenridge need to check this out to remedy it. Bathroom had plentiful, towels and tissues, toilet paper, etc. and nice and clean and spacious.
The little kitchen area (at the entrance) had all the cockery and cutlery you would need for a comfortable stay for 2 people (including a couple of bubbly glasses as well as water & wine ones). Eggs and frozen bread, cereals, coffee (for plunger), spreads, milk, apple juice, tea bags, S & P and cooking oil were plentiful.
Now, luckily we bought a couple of ramekins with us (not everyone does this, I know) and we used these to do experientially learning on how to microwave eggs. Not sure how to avoid ‘explosions but the best result was had with mine when I began with 25 seconds and kept going with 5 second burst until the egg looked cooked (around about 45 secs in total (no guarantees). T had 'explosins' with his eggs.
This was all because the hotplate provided didn’t work, the left element did not heat up at all and the right element heated up for about 3 mins and turned itself off so I can’t see how it was possible to cook anything with it other than warming water!
I did a walk around the complex; the cottages are probably the quieter options (as they are further back from the road (not that the studios were noisy mind!). I thought the whole complex scenically was a bit boring (just look at previous photos) They do not look ‘pretty’ or even inviting or interesting. Nothing wrong with lots of fields of grass with the odd tree but there needs to be more landscaping or gardening to make the place more appealing. Outside each cottage are a pair of planters outside the front door with some foliage or tree in it but nothing else to add colour or anything of interest. There is plenty of scope here, I am not a landscaper but why not a bed of roses, some colourful flower beds or outdoor feature (petanque pitch, outdoor cheese set, fountain/water feature, pond, sculptures (I saw one outside the gym entrance). The outdoor woodwork and concrete fences could do with a good waterblast to get rid of the lichen and dirt. Nothing wrong with quiet and peaceful but I did think it was just a bit boring visually.
That all said, I did enjoy my stay but would I return? Unsure. Note that there was booking availability here whereas many places in Martinborough & Greytown of the similar price point were booked out way before hand. This place is located a very short 4 minute drive from centre of Martinborough and does have a very good gym and length swimming room (nothing in there except for the pool, some plastic plants in here could enhance the décor). The spa facilities were not open while we were there but due to open on 17 January again. It does cater for events such as weddings in a function room behind reception.
I think some investment needs to be put into the whole complex to ‘juosh’ it up otherwise, it is going to miss out.

翻译：我们住在工作室房间。
最初，由于之前的评论，我有点犹豫，但我的第一印象很好。房间和空间很可爱！好吧，知道这个空间已经过时了，有些东西也需要照料（油漆划痕、浴室瓷砖上的霉菌、室外木架上的地衣等）。但
从好的方面来说，房间大小很好，自然采光很好，可以看到长满青草的橄榄树，一侧有一张工作台，另一侧有一张床头小桌，床尾有两把舒适的椅子供观看电视。床头灯往往会发出充足的光线（因此，如果您的伴侣需要黑暗才能入睡，请带上书灯）。灯光可调，但不要太亮。如果您需要，可以使用安静的热泵。部分浴室配有可调节的地暖。我们的马桶出现故障，因为它在冲水后发出“嘶嘶声”（我的伙伴在午夜冲水后修好了它），但布拉肯里奇需要检查一下以解决问题。浴室有很多，毛巾和纸巾，卫生纸等，干净宽敞。
小厨房区（在入口处）配备了 2 人舒适住宿所需的所有餐具和餐具（包括几个泡泡杯以及水和酒杯）。鸡蛋和冷冻面包、麦片、咖啡（柱塞式）、涂抹酱、牛奶、苹果汁、茶包、标准普尔和食用油都很丰富。
现在，幸运的是，我们买了几个小模子（我知道不是每个人都这样做），我们用它们来体验学习如何用微波炉加热鸡蛋。不确定如何避免“爆炸”，但最好的结果是我从 25 秒开始并持续 5 秒爆炸直到鸡蛋看起来煮熟（总共大约 45 秒（无法保证））。T 有“爆炸”用他的鸡蛋。
这都是因为提供的电炉不工作，左边的元件根本没有加热，右边的元件加热了大约 3 分钟然后自动关闭，所以我看不出怎么用它做任何东西除了热水！
我绕着大楼走了一圈；小屋可能是更安静的选择（因为它们离马路更远（并不是说工作室很吵！）。我觉得整个建筑群的风景有点无聊（看看以前的照片）他们看起来并不“漂亮” ' 甚至是邀请或有趣。很多草地和奇怪的树并没有错，但需要更多的景观美化或园艺才能使这个地方更具吸引力。在每个小屋的前门外都有一对种植园，上面有一些树叶或其中的树，但没有其他东西可以添加颜色或任何有趣的东西。这里有很多空间，我不是园林设计师，但为什么不是玫瑰花床，一些五颜六色的花坛或户外设施（法式滚球球场，户外奶酪套装，喷泉/水景、池塘、雕塑（我在体育馆入口外看到了一个）。室外的木制品和混凝土围栏可以用良好的喷水来去除地衣和污垢。安静祥和没有错，但我确实认为它只是有点博在视觉上响起。
总而言之，我确实住得很愉快，但我会回来吗？不确定。请注意，这里有预订可用性，而马丁堡和格雷敦的许多类似价格点的地方都提前预订了。这个地方距离马丁堡市中心只有很短的 4 分钟车程，确实有一个非常好的健身房和长游泳池（除了游泳池，那里什么都没有，这里的一些塑料植物可以增强装饰）。我们在那里的时候，水疗设施没有开放，但将于 1 月 17 日再次开放。它确实适合在接待处后面的多功能厅举办婚礼等活动。
我认为需要对整个建筑群进行一些投资以使其“焕然一新”，否则它就会错过。
