Our Team's Kind Words

Working at a five-star spa facility with exceptional amenities makes me truly proud of where I work. The recognition we receive through awards each year is a testament to the dedication we all share. I absolutely love my colleagues, and it’s rewarding to contribute to ensuring our guests' experiences are exceptional through outstanding customer service. Beyond my reception role, I enjoy assisting other departments within the spa, all while upholding the high standard we aim to deliver. On a personal note, I also appreciate the perk of free access to the gym and swimming pool - I love starting my day with a swim before heading into work.

Sue Wilder - Spa Receptionist

Working at Carden Park is truly special. The beautiful scenery and hardworking team create an incredible environment to spend time in. The best part of my job is speaking with guests and making their experience as memorable as possible, especially when I get to create something bespoke for special occasions. The support I get from managers and supervisors makes a huge difference to my day, unlike any other workplace I've experienced before. The pride we take in offering unmatched quality is shared by everyone on the team. I feel confident that we provide 5-star service from the moment a guest first calls. Plus I also love the perks - using the leisure club keeps me motivated and healthy, which is important to me. I also regularly take advantage our staff perk box which has a lot of wonderful discounts too.

Cerys Jones - Reservationist

The chance to progress is what I like most about working at Carden Park, and the team is really supportive. I started on the bar team, then moved up to shift leader, and now I’m a trainee bar manager. The variety in the job keeps it interesting - one day I’m handling weddings, the next I’m working with golf groups which is quite different. I also get to collaborate with other teams like C&B to make sure every guest gets great service. Plus, the hotel's location is very idyllic, so driving in every day acts as a reminder of how much I like the place.

Isaac Brennan - Trainee Bar Manager

The whole Carden team are so friendly and helpful, nothing is ever too much trouble. It’s a place where I am proud to work.

Carden Park has been a fantastic place to grow in my career within Sports and Leisure. They’ve supported my development by providing relevant courses and qualifications, and their commitment to sustainability through the environmental committee makes it an even better place to work. At The Leisure Club, I have the chance to meet guests from around the world and be part of a great membership community, which creates a welcoming, friendly atmosphere. The perks are great too - I regularly enjoy the Leisure facilities, including the all-weather tennis courts, and have made the most of the Spa and an overnight stay.
