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 While the staff were all very friendly and accommodating, I found the rooms to be a bit outdated and lacking in comfort for the price I paid.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.

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.

My stay at the hotel was quite mixed. While the location near the golf course was convenient and the staff were exceptionally friendly, I found the rooms a bit lacking in size and light.
