2 night stay, there was no restaurant facilities available after 17.30 on the first night so had to dine early.
Second night dined at the local pub.
Only 1 teabag each night!
Rooms quiet which would be expected in the middle of a golf course in winter.
Nothing to do on the complex probably due to the time of year.
Absolutely lovely place to stay, the only let down was that although i booked a double bed room the bed wasn't a full size double and the quilt wasn't large enough to cover me completely, the saving grace was the additional banket on the bed. I will stay again but will ensure i communicate with them prior to my stay to ensure they accommodate my 6,4" needs. another positive was the fact i could shower without having to Squat under the shower head. which is often a problem in some of the larger chain hotels.
Terrible way finding signage. If you arrive after 4pm you have no chance of finding your way around. Impossible to find the reception. The details sent are incorrect as the reception area has changed. The breakfast rooms lacks any atmosphere and is quite simply, depressing.

Needs an room overhaul!
Very limited instructions on arrival.
The deluxe room was very tired looking holes in a dirty and threadbare carpet - unable to use bath or shower as the entry is very deep and even deeper getting out.
Room very clean tho - no instructions as to wifi or times of breakfast.
Charged an extortionate £50 for a small dog - one night!
Amazing breakfast and fast service
