Our stay was completely spoilt by the yobbish behaviour of men who should know better and the Hotel staff maybe need to
Pros:

Great views overlooking the golf course from the terrace and restaurant.

Cons:

The foul language and the general behaviour of the golf players who during our stay had almost zero awareness of other mixed ages and groups of other hotel guests being around them including young children, totally unacceptable.

Enjoyable, somewhat spoiled by noisy neighbours and people coming back early hours of the morning.
Pros:

Room was comfortable and clean.
All the staff were friendly and helpful.
Lasagne and chips of the bar menu was good.
Breakfast was varied and good

Cons:

I asked for a quite room, there was a wedding on so that did'nt work out, but nothing the hotel could do I suppose.
Next door neighbour had television on loud from 12:00 and still going at 00:50. no answer when I knocked on door. Went to reception, Adam was able to switch off sound remotely and was very helpful, so thanks for that. Peope coming back from the wedding at 03.10, noisy and drunk was not great. I think still serving drinks at that time of night is unacceptable.

Lovely Stay
Pros:

We go to a lot of spa stays, the first time here. We will stay again, next time we are hoping to stay 2 nights. Despite the room decor being old they were maintained well and we could see new carpets, new bed etc. Our only criticism was the spa area. The temperature of the pool and jacuzzi were lovely, sadly, sauna was not working and the spa area especially the ceiling needs work. My partner said mens changing room needs modernising .

Cons:

Again only issue we had was no robes. Most spas we go to have robes, not a problem as we bought some ourselves although we didn't take them because we thought they may have had some.

Very pleasant, pretty location being in a golf & country club
Pros:

All my meals were excellent… the evening meal offered local fish products… the breakfast was lovely & great value for the money.

Cons:

The lighting on route was on a sensor so I was walking back to my room in the dark until the light kicked in… I understand it’s for environmental purposes but it should start from 10.30pm as there are no windows to light your way.
