Bedroom and bathroom were good size. Comfortable bed and brilliant shower.
Room was clean and well maintained but could not open a window at night as we had patio doors opening onto the car park. Air-conditioning was available.
Breakfast selection was reasonable but service to get coffee slow.
The bar and restaurant areas need an upgrade as tables and soft furnishings looking very shabby.
Lovely patio looking out onto the golf course, very relaxing. However, there must have been a lot of moisture in the foam seat cushions as the rear of my shorts was rather wet!
We arrived in the middle of an event which was very loud and had been set up outside one of our rooms. Not ideal when we had young children. The manager did listen to our concerns and manage to resolve the issues.

Very large and quiet room. Comfortable bed. Good gym. Swimming pool look good, but I didn't use it. Great breakfast buffet. Plenty of parking.
The room was spacious, light and spotlessly clean. The bathroom sparkled and the Dove toiletries lovely. There was a coffee maker, kettle and decent hairdryer.
Staff were very helpful and friendly.
Highly recommend
Tables for 2 in the dining room are far too small for breakfast.
The food was good, but we had to ask for fresh eggs etc as the cooked foods were not replenished. no-one explained that other varieties of egg were available. Only scrambled on the hot plate and no staff manning the food station.
Bedroom was spacious and clean, however it was chilly.
Easy check in, choice of bar meals great. Staff pleasant and helpful. Rooms spacious and very clean

Staff and food great!
But the room should be warm when you arrive and I've stayed twice (and will return) and each time the room has been Baltic, colder than the corridor, and given the lovely proportions of the rooms, it's a good 2-3 before they warm up.
Like I said, I do really like the place and I will be back, just a couple of niggles preventing that 5* review - the other being that they are the only hotel in the world that doesn't accept Amex but that's only a minor inconvenience to me.
Lovely staff and lovely facilities fab place for an overnight stay xx

Rooms are lovely and although I wanted to use the leisure facilities I just felt too tired from my travels but they are great too.
Meals and breakfast are very nice.
Receptionist on check in was great but service can be slow and I had to chase people to get things done. Sort the service out and this would be excellent.
Lovely stay - rooms clean and spacious. Staff were very helpful and friendly. Enjoyed both breakfast and evening meal. Pool and steam rooms were a welcome bonus. Would definitely stay again. Thank you.
Everything was great 👍
And when my car wouldn't start one morning, Dave - the maintenace man, got it going for me, and checked the next morning that it was starting ok
That's service.
Thank you 😍

The staff were all very pleasant and helpful.
The bedroom was very nice
The leisure club looked like it needed some work doing on the shower and toilet doors
Breakfast in the restaurant was very good.
Dinner was not great for the price
