We visit the bar/lounge each week and use the driving range/golf course. The staff are friendly and helpful, the service is good and food excellent. The bar/lounge area is clean and comfortable to relax with pre-drinks or after a meal. There are dogs allowed in this area and we have never experienced issues . I understand some people do not like dogs in bars/restaurants, but this does not detract from the lovely surroundings and service. Judging by the numbers of weddings at the venue and numbers attending regular music shows, many people obviously agree.
