I think this place would have been great in 80's and 90's, but it's very very tired now. I cannot recall seeing a plastic shower curtain in a hotel and that's indicative of the interiors here. Room was reasonably priced, but maybe it's time for some investment.

Overall very good and I'd happy go back, however the hotel has a very strange and rather disjointed layout, and the public spaces whilst very well kept and pleasant don't go the extra mile to make this feel like a premium experience. Let me be clear, this is only the decor, which is in good condition, just not very special. The staff, room and food were excellent

We had a lovely stay and also met up with family members. Our room was fresh, clean, comfortable and very welcoming. We had intended to use the spa facilities and the pool, which looked lovely but we ran out of time unfortunately ! We will return ! From the moment we checked in with the gentleman in Reception, to all staff members we met during our stay, they couldnt have been more welcoming, helpful or efficient. They are a credit to you and valued staffing. A good visit, thank you, and we will return.

Our favourite hotel for a family wellbeing break, we love the sauna, pool, jacuzzi and steam room, quiet bedrooms and the buffet breakfast. Lots to see and do in the local area, and the staff are lovely. Useful to have EV charging and plenty of free parking.

Lovely staff , extremely clean in all areas . Good quality food for evening meal and the buffet breakfast was very good value for money . I would say that the pool area could do with a re-think as trying to get past the jacuzzi to the pool steps when swimming lessons are taking place is quite difficult, one wrong move and you would be head first into the jacuzzi! Otherwise great facilities. The spa looked lovely but unfortunately no slots available, our fault as we booked an hour before arrival as a last minute decision. Would 100% stay again.

Staff were fantastic; a real asset to the hotel. We stayed in a family room which was great, although a little bit of a distance from reception but I guess that’s good too as quieter.

Spacious and clean room overlooking the golf course. Staff were polite, welcoming and helpful. Made good uses of the swimming pools steam room sauna and small gym during the late afternoon/evening. There was a wedding party at the hotel during my stay but there were no noise issues in the room.
