Room was not good. Bedside lights didn't work. Wardrobe door was hanging of the hinges. Carpet was old. Paintwork was in need of attention. Walls were all marked. Bathroom was clean and bed was comfortable. Dinner in the restaurant was excellent. Breakfast could have been better. Spa was good. Wouldn't book again, there were too many negatives.

Good golf course. Staff very friendly and helpful. For the price the hotel lacked finishing touches: minimum toiletries and room extras, no quiet lounge for residents.

Liked: Room comfort
Initially ignored by the receptionist, despite standing there waiting to be greeted and booked in. Booked a double room and was given a twin room. Had dinner in the restaurant, which was busy and had to wait over an hour for our mains. The food was very good, though. Overall, we would not come here again.

All the staff were very friendly and everywhere was clean and tidy. If you were later than 09.00 am for breakfast, the choice was not so good than if you had turned up earlier, that was our feeling. The Saturday evening meal was not totally satisfactory because there was not enough staff and we booked a table at 20.30 but did not eat until 21.45. The server did his best but was over powered with the demands of trying to keep up with the orders. Maybe the kitchen staff were understaffed as well. On Sunday morning breakfast we heard staff saying we have no more cutlery left . If Saturday night is the busiest dining night, then adequate staff should be available. We were very tolerant and could have made a big fuss and refused to pay for the service we received, however we felt sorry for the person involved who was trying to cope under difficult circumstances
