First room we were given looked out on to a flat roof so we asked if we could have a room overlooking the golf course, this was not a problem and the 2nd room was very clean and comfortable with a fantastic view . We had only planned to stay 2 nights but were having such a great time that... More

Stayed here recently. Lovely rooms at an affordable price and they are huge rooms too. Very clean overall and the staff are very helpful. Good pool/gym and sauna facilities. The only downside was the food in the bar, the portions were tiny.... I had the chicken dish and I was sure I had received a child's portion, it was that... More

On entering our room, we noticed that the bin in the bathroom had not been emptied from the previous occupant which really wasn't a great start. Great breakfast could be brought to the room in the morning but had to be delivered before 9 (hotel rules) - no problem! It arrived at 9.20, freezing and food items that had been... More
