Turns out that it’s REALLY hard to persuade a taxi to come out to this location unless pre-booked. Staff were super helpful and did eventually get me fixed up, but perhaps on check in you could check if a taxi might be required and advise guests to pre book.

The room was a good size and quiet although it could do with updating. The bathroom has several issues including mould on the ceiling and around the shower, a leaking toilet and no hot water in the shower. On a positive note the problem with the shower was rectified promptly by maintenance

Large corporate hotel - everything works !

Warm welcome at check in and very efficient. Large comfortable room everything worked . Great staff. . Reasonable food promptly served . Rather noisy at night - mostly single men on golfing weekend so banging doors and boisterous noise after being in the bar!

Stayed one night to attend a funeral locally. The room was comfortable enough and breakfast was buffet style but fine. EV drivers should note that the charging provider has been rebranded as Roam and not EVC Plus on the signs. Download their app before you arrive as it’s 3G signal strength in the car park. Plenty of chargers though and more being installed which was great to see.
