It was a good price but would be very disappointing if we had paid more
Pros:

Location

Cons:

The hotel food was very poor. And the staff that cleaned our room left a horrendous smell of body odour. There was also a smell of body odour from a member of breakfast staff

Disappointing.
Pros:

I have been and stayed here before.
The breakfast was very nice.

Cons:

I booked a superior room with a balcony view of the golf course.
Our room 104 didn’t fit the description.
The name on the tv was same surname incorrect first names.
There were no hangers in the wardrobe.
The garden room menu was mediocre.
I asked for a glass of moretti beer I was given some gimmicky equivalent called poretti in a Guinness glass which I returned.
The passion martini differed in taste according to the cocktail maker who made them.
I was disappointed as it was my husband’s birthday and the night away was a treat as I had been raving about returning to the 5 star hotel I had experienced previously.. and we were now both disappointed.

Exceptional hotel set in lovely grounds. Will definitely visit again.
Pros:

Overall a lovely calm environment. Staff at reception, in fact all the staff, were very welcoming. We had a large comfortable room with air con. Spotless bathroom. Great choice of hot or cold breakfast. Had a superb meal in Hugo's and a lovely walk around the grounds. Will definitely visit again.

Cons:

There's nothing to dislike here!
