Cons:

Room 23 has a problem with some plumbing - guessing a pump on the water in the ceiling is the problem, keeps kicking in and the room is noisy - advice - get this sorted or do not rent this room out

Nice area and other things to do with children near by.
Pros:

The property was lovely and grounds nice.
I went with my daughter so didn’t use the golf coarse

Cons:

Very restrictive uses in the pool if you’re going with a child. This should be advertised more as I booked because it had a pool and we couldn’t use it most of the time
Plus the staff were quite rude at the pool.
Breakfast was lovely and catering staff very helpful and on the ball.
Reception wasn’t so friendly but it was a stressful time due to doors keys not working for them.
