Comfortable room, but just that - a room gor the night.
Pros:

Location good. Very comfortable room.

Cons:

No cafe/restaurant in hotel. I know the nearby hold course cafe was available but something in the hotel would be nice. Was made clear though on booking that no in house food/drink available. After a long day driving having drink things (even just soft drinks) would have been nice.

Disappointing
Pros:

N/A

Cons:

I was aware there was no provision for breakfast, but the 'on site café' was a shed in the car park with rough bench seating and only 2tables. There was no bar and I had to let in the person who I was meeting as the front door was permanently locked.
