Pleasant
Pros:

Views were stunning, as you would expect on a golf course. Food was good, especially evening meal steak & chips. Staff were really helpful, especially when we wanted to dress a function room and dispose of boxes.

Cons:

Rooms and food areas a bit tired. Need updating.
Staff could be a bit more polished and special. Breakfast, would’ve preferred granola to be with cereal choices as self serve.

It was fine
Pros:

Convenient. Everything was ok

Cons:

It's dated. Feels like a luxury hotel from the nineties. Guy serving drinks in the bar needs some basic customer service training. Overall the place is fine / ok.

A Comfortable Stay

Pros:

Staff friendly

Cons:

Facilities felt tired and in need of reservations. Minimal assistance with bags when travelling with two children and multiple journeys required. Limited time to use the pool for kids which made it not possible. No early breakfast option available and limited room service.

OK for a stop over, lovely views
Pros:

Lovely views over the golf course

Cons:

If you do not play golf, it is really not for you, it is 100% golf oriented, I tried to book a manicure (just to give me something to do) but there were no spa staff on the premises who could do treatments, maybe a weekend would have been better, we stayed on a Monday night.

Nice location but that’s about it, very poor customer service.
Pros:

Size of room. Location.

Cons:

Poor staff attitude at check in (did not feel welcome) and golf club. Golf club refused to lend us clubs to use on the driving range, even though they had some available (very poor service, I would have been happy to pay for a set - went to local driving range instead, who were very accommodating - no idea why club wanted to lose money and offer no service!). Room had a balcony light that could not be turned off and made room very bright at night (was told nothing they could do about it, again, very poor service!).

Lovely Hotel WiFi a big let down
Pros:

Great location beautiful setting

Cons:

WiFi was rubbish, kept dropping out and due to remote location literally no signal on EE whatsoever.

There for business stay - WiFi caused me issues regarding work.

Floodlight outside on balcony that could not be turned off was annoying, not the light but due to fitment of the curtains allowed too much light under and over the top for my liking so the room was not dark enough. Better curtains or switch to turn off the floodlight with as much wattage as our sun!
