Nice hotel with golf course
Has a feeling of space especially with golf course. A country hotel. Good facilities- swimming pool , Turkish bath, sauna (at minute jacuzzi not working). WiFi good and TV with freeview channels. Nice bathroom with tub. Did not eat at hotel - walked to an Indian restaurant at the edge of the driveway to the hotel. There is now a coffee shop next to the Indian as well.

Disappointing
Lovely hotel however the spa facilities were not all available for the duration of our stay, very disappointing especially as we booked this hotel for rehabilitation of illness. Staff permitted a large group of children to walk around the pool area in dirty shoes, whilst relaxing these children were distruptive and abusive to myself and other guests. So overall not a very relaxing experience. The staff were very friendly until I had an issue, and then their attitude changed. The rooms were clean but dated. We had a fire exit from our bedroom which lead onto the roof. On waking in the morning I saw another guest sitting by my bedroom drinking coffee and smoking.

Great price for facilities
I booked this hotel for some of our employees - who stay away regularly, the price for here was the same as a shared accommodation, so it was a no brainer for their stay. Our employees loved this, the gym facility and swimming pool was a great addition to their normal accommodation.

Very good value for money. Interesting building. Pool looked good. Staff were friendly. Breakfast was great. Difficult to find on GPS in the dark. A bit worn, probably due an update, but this is reflected in the price.

Queued up for 30mins at check in, only 1 poor young girl on front desk doing her best. Eventually got to the room to discover there was no cold water. Was told they had issues with their pumps, this has been ongoing for months, why still take booking and peoples monies? Had a scolding hot shower and went for dinner. To be fair the food was lovely, but was unable to serve any beer as the gasses had gone? Settled for a cold jug of water, even though they had no water in ANY/ALL the rooms? (There was 20 of us on a golf break). Finally got the beers back on and was told no one could pay for anything as their tills/system had gone done. This hotel was not fit for purpose and I will be pursuing a full refund for wasting and ruining our time away. Needs managing shake up and sackings.

Where do I start?!?!?! My partner and her friend had beauty treatments booked which were cancelled due to the member of staff handing their notice in (before we even arrived) then it just went from bad to worse when we got there with the ongoing issue of water problems which is apparently a known problem and yet never were we made aware of this before arriving. The hotel losses water pressure at the times when other guests are using showers, baths etc which means that you have no way of washing because there is no cold water so all you have it scolding hot and on top of that the toilets don’t even flush! I did get away with having a wash down by the pool which still wasn’t great but a bath in our room was not possible as no cold water. There were many other issues with the hotel but this was obviously the main one and in my opinion this hotel shouldn’t be open in its current state and certainly shouldn’t be charging £130 per night. The staff were all very pleasant and helpful but they certainly did have their work cut out with so many people complaining. I will definitely NOT be recommending this hotel to anyone any time soon. I would return for the day to play golf only but would never stay here again and could comfortably say that it was the worse hotel in this country that I’ve stayed in.

Clean, neat and tidy. No real 'bar' area, basically some seating in the reception area which was disappointing given such a large property. Could have a fab cocktail bar with garden access if they gave up one of the 'function' rooms.
