Adequate for our dancing night. Lots of traffic issues and diversions.
Pros:

Room was nice.

Cons:

Had to move as it was noisy by the bar area outside. The spa was old and could do with a refit.

Staff were very friendly, will return at some point to use the golf courses on site.
Pros:

We were only there 1 night for a football tournament down the road. Location was perfect, Facilities all seemed very good although we didn't get to use many of them apart from the driving range.
Staff we very friendly.

Cons:

The only negative was there were unfortunately some dirty pants left on the back of the bathroom door. We mentioned to reception straight after check-in who were going to get this cleared but unfortunately didn't happen and didn't know that until after midnight when heading back to the room. Reported again in the morning and staff were very apologetic and sent housekeeping to sort for the next guest.
Didn't ruin the stay but nice not to be greeting by someone else's dirty grunds!
I was otherwise clean so just an oversight.
