Lovely hotel, room was big and spacious it had a very comfy bed, bathroom had a bath and shower. Great well equipped gym, huge pool, sauna and steamer all included in room rate for you to use at no extra price. Staff were all so polite and friendly. Grounds and golf course were beautiful with fabulous views from the restaurants. Breakfast was buffet style with hot and cold selections and you had so much to choose from, couldn’t fault anything the eggs were amazing. We also had a meal in their grill restaurant faultless service and food was delicious. We will 100% be coming back for another trip.

This has to rank as one of the best hotels we have ever stayed at (including holidays abroad). The room was incredible, it was one of the luxury suites. Every little thing had been thought of to make the stay as comfortable as possible. Staff were very helpful and polite. They really added to the experience. As for the leisure facilities the pool has to be the best I’ve seen for a hotel spa. Add to that a jacuzzi, steam room and sauna what more could you want. We’ll be looking for any excuse at all to return.
