Great location in a lovely venue surrounded by the lush green golf course. Room was fully equipped with kitchen and living areas. Only stayed a little while but enjoyed it a lot.

Fantastic stay. Very clean, modern and spacious. Best place we have stayed since lockdown ended. Better than Peppers or Novotel resorts. Whole family loved it. We will be back.

Property won me over on the simplicity in booking and checking in. The room looked brand new in terms of hygiene which made it very comfortable.
The pool was also very clean and kept well.
Overall, excellent stay with the kids. Cant fault anything at all.

Wednesday morning is bin morning and it’s loud as hell early in the morning. You won’t sleep through it.
Great room, very comfortable. Simple. No frills. Breakfast at the golf club.

Sue at reception was very friendly and extremely helpful.
The room was clean but lacked amenities such as bathrobes in the bathroom. The lounge area could benefit from some cushions on the sofa. Amenities in the kitchen was limited to tea/coffee/ green tea. Juice or water and more than one small carton of milk would have been good in the fridge.
The outside areas such as pool and barbecue area are immaculate and the grounds are beautiful.

Bedroom had light coming in even with curtains in use and would have loved a breakfast option. But everything else was excellent

Right from the time we walked into reception- unfriendly welcome (if you could call it that), I’ve been made to feel more welcome at a country motel! Facilities and room were great, however the staff could use some training in hospitality.
A smile or two would’ve been welcome.
