Comfy, clean, excellent showers; did the job, however would not stay for breakfast.
Pros:

Room - clean, spacious, massive bathrooms, fantastic shower, fluffy towels, soap, tea/coffee provided, black out curtains & parking. Receptionist Leonna was brilliant.

For the price - would I stay again if passing through - yes. If there was a function on and people staying over - no.

Cons:

Please note, the walls in the lodge are paper thin, and the floors above are very creaky!! We were woken twice in the night for nightly toilet trips from the family above us. If you are a light sleeper, bring earplugs! It's like camping outside where you can hear everyone snoring - lol.
Breakfast - the lady serving told my husband they were fully booked but would squeeze us in, however we had to have ordered in the next 15 minutes. Of all the tables in the restaurant, only 3 were used the whole time we were there. My husband's breakfast looked lovely, however my Cumberland sausage barm was something else. It was one of those thin swirly/spiral sausages on a massive white barm; more bread than sausage. I was expecting proper thick Cumberland sausages...so that was disappointing. Despite one grumpy member of staff, the other lady serving was lovely and happy.

The customer usually notices most things both good and bad.
Pros:

Overall a pleasant experience which could have been so much more. The facility is impressive, it exudes success, the lodges being part of a programme to offer golfing holidays. I was more than a little concerned about their cost cutting in ways that reflect poorly on their efforts at being welcoming and making you feel important. As an example the toilet tissue has to be the very worst we have ever encountered, it's cheap and as a result nasty and almost none functional. A box or vanity of tissues would also have been a welcome feature.
Annoyingly there is a light in the ceiling above the main door which remains on throughout the night, total darkness cannot therefore be achieved and since it is 'white' light immediately wakens the brain and the process of getting back to sleep has to start again!

Cons:

The little things are important and should be concentrated on to make the stay more enjoyable.
The floor surface in the bathroom was in desperate need of grouting. The tiles in front of the toilet could be responsible for a bloodied foot!
