Cons:

Reception was dirty and room could have done with a makeover especially bathroom. No power in the shower. Nobody was around in the morning to get into reception to drop off.

Very Good
Pros:

Closeness to Donald’s Golf Courses, good food, nice bar with Sky Sports on. Room was very clean and nice touch with the iron & ironing board.

Cons:

Poor water pressure from the shower. No shower mat so I found it very slippy. Radiator didn’t work in bathroom.

We would definitely stay here again
Pros:

The beds were were very comfortable, the bedding & towels spotless.
Large flat screen tv in the bedroom.
The breakfast was gorgeous & very generous portions. Staff in the restaurant the night before & at breakfast were attentive, & so friendly.
Great value for money & would definitely staff again.

Cons:

The bathrooms could be updated but the cost to stay would probably increase so to be fair, they were clean & the towels are great.
