We booked the Health House for a ten day holiday with two specific requirements - good self catering facilities (with a family of five it is too expensive to eat out every night) and a decent pool (my kids love swimming).
Both easily satisfied.... well equipped kitchen (hobs, oven and lots of pots and pans..... although needed more cutlery) and a terrific pool. On first sight the poolside area is not particularly welcoming but the pool itself is huge (25m ?) and fantastic for kids who like to swim, dive, and throw balls at each other without annoying others.
Seriously, the pool is big enough for proper swimming lessons with a shallow end and a proper deep end of around 10ft.
Completely covered, in a rather unattractive concrete apron, it was perfect for hot summer afternoons with no one getting burnt (except for those who ventured to the sun loungers nearby).
Best of all, as the hotel is not particularly big, there was never really that many people sharing the water.
The staff were excellent- really friendly, they did everything they could to make us feel welcome. The hotel is family run with seasonal workers and has a very relaxed air. Probably not the best place if you need immediate resolution of issues but if you are willing to go at Italian tempo it's perfect.
