Lovely hotel overlooking golf course. Unfortunately our room was right by the first hole and the golfers were out bright and early on the sunday morning and not at all respectful that people were in in bed... we paid £172 for the one night and didnt even get a lazy sunday morning lie in 🤔

Stayed here as some friends getting married nearby. Paid £190 for B&B. Property is tatty and tired, carpets stained, tiles off the wall in the bathrooms, beds very soft with thin pillows and polyester bedding, no sockets near the bed. Very disappointed given the price. Would not recommend unless paying significantly less. Golf course looked nice and Brian the night porter was very helpful.

Beautuful grounds avoid eating on site
Food and service is a let down. Couldnt eat in the conservatory because they said they havnt cleared the empty tables even though more staff than customers. Food came out different to menu. A glass of wine is more expensive than a main course.

Shower room was needing updating as well as other area’s of the hotel. Had an issue with the evening meal, long wait as they mixed up the orders in the kitchen and had to return our meals as the steaks were not cooked as asked for was replaced was a little better. Overall quite disappointed when a few days stay.

Terrible television setup in most of the rooms with very limited channel options and in some rooms no EPG option either. For the money I would expect and demand more and better. Also two single beds pushed together isn’t really a king size bed. No very honest.

lovely stay - needs external tlc but worth a visit
Every single member of staff at this hotel had a lovely attitude - right from the receptionist through to the cleaning staff. We came to play golf and there were two courses to choose from all beautifully maintained. The steak in the restaurant was the best we’d had in a long while . Our room was comfortable and the bedding soft, the shower was powerful and there was a bath too. We had a golf course view and some chairs outside which was nice. Our only observation is that it needs some TLC externally - we were on the patio of the bar and the tables and chairs need repainting, some lazy smokers had left cigarette butts all over the floor so it looked a bit unloved ( although I guess that’s the smokers fault not the hotel ). The windows need painting etc but whilst it made us notice it, it wouldn’t stop us returning as we had a lovely trip.

OK stay, not not worth the money.
Shower was luke warm.... rooms are functional but tired and in need of updating. Breakfast was sold as a buffet yet someone serving portions. Not asked if i had a great stay or if there were any issues. Premiere Inn's are better value all round and half the price

Disappointing
Disappointing ! Booked and reserved a double room with double bed. I was emailed an upgrade offer to a premium room which I accepted at an additional charge of £8 which I accepted. Checkin was unmanned and I had a 10 minute wait for someone to turn up after calling the number as requested. Once in my room it turned out I had twin beds, and I assume a standard room. After a long day at work I had no hot water in my room so no shower. I ordered room service using the online menu, only o be told the items requested weren’t available and the online menu was no longer in use. Settled for steak frites which to be fair was very tasty. Unfortunately still no hot water in the morning so I packed and checked out. On informing reception that there was no hot water in the room I was told there was no hot water in the whole hotel, no apology just a matter of fact statement. I’ll be avoiding MacDonald group hotels in the future
