I recently stayed at a hotel that's nestled within a beautiful golf course, offering stunning views of the countryside. While the staff were all very friendly and accommodating, I found the rooms to be a bit outdated and lacking in comfort for the price I paid. The dining experience had its ups and downs, but I did appreciate the spa facilities. Overall, it was a mixed stay with some lovely aspects and a few disappointments.

My stay at the hotel was a bit of a mixed bag. While the location was ideal for a weekend getaway, the rooms unfortunately felt quite musty and damp, which was disappointing. The staff were friendly and polite, making my experience pleasant overall. However, the dining options left a lot to be desired, especially breakfast, which could have been better. Overall, I found it to be decent value for money given its location and amenities.

The hotel has a beautiful location, picturesque with a well-kept golf club nearby. The service was outstanding, especially from the spa manager who went above and beyond to ensure our day went smoothly. Unfortunately, the rooms were quite outdated and not as nice as expected based on the website. The dining experience was a little underwhelming with some dried up food items and a wait for service, which was a slight disappointment.

I recently stayed at a hotel that had a beautiful location surrounded by a golf course, which was really pleasant. The service provided by the staff was helpful, but at times, it felt a bit lacking due to understaffing. The rooms, unfortunately, were smaller than what I expected and could use a refresh. The dining experience was a bit chaotic, especially at breakfast where the options ran low. Overall, I wouldn't say it's worth the price of £50 a night.
