Stay was good, there was quite a few stains on the carpet in the room, when the cleaners come into the room daily they don’t make the bed and would just chuck the clean towels on the side of the bed. Room service communication was poor as after 9:00 you could not order hot food. Reception was lovely when checked in but told us the wrong information about getting hot food. Overall stay was good but room could have done with a more thorough clean.

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.

The reason I haven’t given higher rating is the condition and cleanliness of the bathroom. The shower sealant was discoloured with mould in parts and the extractor fan in the ceiling had dust hanging out of it

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!

Disappointing Stay – Not Worth the Price

I stayed at this hotel for two nights as a base for attending a wedding nearby. Starting with the positives, the hotel grounds are lovely, the pool looks inviting, the gym is well-equipped with everything you could need, and the staff are friendly — but unfortunately, that’s where the positives end. I had booked a Super Deluxe room with breakfast for £334 for two nights. While the room was spacious, as shown in the photos, it was far from Super Deluxe. There were holes in the wall and ceiling, mould around the shower, a vent clogged with dust, a non-functional TV, a safe with a missing battery cover, a bathtub panel coming away, and several insects present in the room. I understand that being near a golf course may lead to the occasional insect, but the windows were closed on arrival. For a Super Deluxe room, the amenities were lacking — no bottled water (although water dispensers are available at end of some corridoors), no biscuits to accompany the coffee, and a real struggle to find a plug socket to charge your phone, with none located near the bed. Speaking of which, the bed consisted of two singles pushed together, leaving an uncomfortable gap in the middle. The lounge/bar area is extremely dated. One plug socket even appeared to have experienced a fire at some point. There was generic music playing through tinny, buzzing speakers. I ordered a coffee and a scone; while service was prompt, only the top half of the scone was edible — the bottom half was completely raw.
