Strange they don’t have enough staff and at dinner they ask you to go to bar yourself for drinks as they don’t have time to do this for you. Meal was stone cold but very tasty. Few sent back mains and did come back warmed up.. breakfast was steady as you would expect on mass.

Hospitable, good food

Excellent value for money , evening meal was superb. Staff happy to keep serving drinks all night . Stayed in the delux rooms this year and they great ,worth the extra money .

Brilliant hotel, breakfast and dinner were spot on.

Awesome hotel complimented by excellent staff and delicious food, would definitely go again

On arrival all the group's luggage had to be stored in one of the groups room due to no storage available, group size 16 people. Not a good start. On leaving a store room was available behind the reception area.?? Staff very friendly however, a late bar was only available after the Manageress served us the required refreshments, the bar staff basically told us that the bar was closed. There were no facilities for storing golf equipment at the golf course, this had been available on previous visits, this meant everyone in the party had to trail golf clubs and trollies through the hotel. We were promised hot cookies on arrival, these never materialised. Nearly everyone in the group had issues, at some stage or other, with accessing their rooms due to issues with the key cards having to be reprogrammed. This occurred on several occasions. We have always previously enjoyed ourselves at this venue but it will take a great deal of persuasion and improvment before we return.

Hotel was in good condition all main areas were well presented and comfortable, rooms were comfortable and spacious. Breakfast was of good quality and staff friendly Evening meal food was good but could of been better service on Friday and Saturday was very poor but improved on Sunday after speaking to the Manager Kelly things improved and she bought everyone a drink as an apology for the poor service Drinks could be improved as they were not the best

Staff were very friendly & helpful, actually had a bit of character & charisma about them, made the stay much more pleasent. On a whole the hotel was in great nick.

The hotel has been upgraded by Hilton to a very high standard. One small comment, no air conditioning in bedrooms. Food and service was first class.

As good as it gets great staff snd good food

Arrived Sunday hotel got us arriving Monday , bit of a stand-off which got resolved with plenty of Micky taking ,might want to look into that

Absolutely brilliant. No faults at all. Course in fantastic condition. Decent beer and food. Rooms comfortable. Superb value for money

At face value this hotel screams quality but sadly falls way below on many fronts, we had room 11 and initially you think it’s great but then we found the following one spotlight is hanging by a thread, the shower head is broken the net curtain had probably been there since opening day as it’s black full of holes and ripped at the bottom a good night sleep not easy as the walls must be paper thin as you can hear every word spoken in the corridor even when people talking normally, turning to the restaurant on night one we were told we had no reservation and had to prove it, then payment was demanded we refused because on golf package reluctantly they agreed then the next morning we were asked name and room for breakfast which we gave and were told we had already had breakfast and could not enter again, after much discussion we finally got breakfast, on night two all was fine

Excellent service and great staff! Drinks very expensive though!

Five star from start to finish

Very helpful and friendly staff. Managed to accommodate our change of meal time request so we could watch the Champion's League Final.

What great rooms and lovely beds after walking the golf course, plus a lovely long hot shower. The staff were great and couldn't do enough for us. We will make this this trip again sooner rather than later.

Hotel very clean and good service quality food

Couldn't fault it - great reception - treated like VIPs.

Fantastic hotel and facilities Staff were very friendly and did everything they could to help

Lovely hotel - hotel and Pro shop staff all very friendly and very helpful. Room was very nice, bed was very comfortable. It was a quick turnaround so all I can say really.

Poor service in restaraunt at evening . Food average. Breakdast great Food in spikes bar horrendous. Served plastic processed cheese on stale bread!

Very appropriate venue for dads and lads Easter golf

The acccomadation was first class, stayed a few times . And always a great experience.

Not a single thing that could be faulted with this venue. Great rooms, great restaurant and very attentive staff. The leisure and spa facilities were ideal.

Fabulous rooms amazing shower

Staff couldn't be more helpful when we arrived. The beaches course was going to be closed on the monday so they moved our courses around meaning we were able to play all 3 courses in our trip. Our good was great and We tried the Local beer. This was the first-time I had booked with golf travel. I will certainly use them again. Easiest golf break I have booked and played. Well done to all.

Our room was 2 double beds, (great when sharing with a golf buddy. Room very clean and comfortable. Big screen TV with Sports channel. Food very good. Package deal all in all = excellent.

Our party of 18 golfers was unanimous in voting the location as first class The courses were challenging but well presented and in excellent condition The accommodation was of a high standard and well maintained. Dining facilities and food quality couldn't be faulted and alterations are underway to provide more comfortable bar areas adjacent to the dining rooms. For the athletic there are excellent spa and exercise facilities readily available Highly recommended

Everybody was pleased with all the arrangements and faciities

We had a fantastic time at Forest Pines. The 3 9 hole courses were all superb so thank you so much for your high recommendation...did you order the great weather for us as well!? 

I can’t praise YGT enough for the excellent service and the golf break was great value for money too. Forest Pines has a superb hotel with five star facilities including the spa and the pool. The restaurants were nice with great food and friendly service too...the staff could not have been more helpful.

We can’t recommend this venue enough and shall definitely be going again. The trip scored a definite 10 out of 10 in all aspects, not only the golf course and hotel but great value for money and service from YGT.

Have recently returned from a golf break at Forest Pines so thought I’d get in touch.

The course was in excellent condition with true greens which were running at a decent speed. The golf at Forest Pines is suitable for all levels. Although all three courses are heavily tree lined, you rarely seem to be hunting for golf balls!

Staff were friendly and accommodating at the hotel and the food also very good. 

All in all, this is a venue I would certainly recommend for visiting parties!

My wife and I enjoyed the hotel at Forest Pines. Great breakfasts! 

The three nine hole golf courses were in good condition and were really fun to play, although they can get a bit tight at times!

Thanks for everything Your Golf Travel; you even managed to arrange good weather!

We had a really good break at Forest Pines and as usual, you guys at YGT didn’t let us down with your recommendation!

All 3 loops of 9 holes were of equally great condition and very well kept with fairways like carpets, even during the spell of hot weather of late. All of the greens run very true and smooth as well.

Forest Pines is certainly a good challenge and although you do need to be straight, there are certainly a few birdie chances; maybe even an eagles if you are ok with a fairway wood!

We all found the clubhouse very welcoming and spent quite a lot of time sitting on the balcony watching other golfers come down the stretch with a cold beer on the go, the prices for which were slightly high but not extortionate.

Food in the restaurant was of great quality – dined once in restaurant – and on our second night
we dined in the clubhouse area as this was great value for money.

All of the guestrooms were of good standard too and we used all the leisure areas as well to chill and unwind which was a bonus.

All members of staff were friendly and you could quickly build a good rapport with them which is important in such a setting.

I’ve already recommended Forest Pines to others and would give it a 9/10 overall...very
much one we would go back to.

Hope this all reads ok and thanks again,we will be doing more trips and will certainly be in contact with Your Golf Travel again.

What a great venue Forest Pines Hotel & Golf Resort is. Easy access from M180 and good signposting made our journey there a piece of cake. The Hotel has quality in every department. Food, rooms, staff...all very good.

The golf course was in excellent condition and was enjoyed by all different handicap players in our group (from 5 – 24). The 19th hole was welcoming and the beers were sold at reasonable prices.

The Overall verdict from all of the group was 10/10.

We had a great weekend at Forest Pines so many thanks for all your help. 

The 3 golf courses were all in great condition and benefitted from amazing drainage.

The hotel is lovely too with friendly staff, nice guestrooms and good food.

We would really recommend the resort to others and will hopefully go there again ourselves.

We had a great three days at Forest Pines, with good golf and a nice hotel. The bar prices were a bit over the top but apart from this everything was excellent.

Our golf break to Forest Pines was brilliant. Members of staff are all extremely friendly and made our stay comfortable to say the least. The menu in the restaurant seemed to be a bit limited but the food was excellent; couldn’t fault it at all.

The golf courses were all beautiful (there are 3 nine hole loops) and the greens were very well kept indeed.

We found the hotel easily so no problems there and the rooms were large and very comfortable.

Overall I would book with your recommendations again and would certainly go back to Forest Pines in the future.

The Hotel staff at Forest Pines are exceptional and did all they could to make our stay enjoyable. The breakfasts are very good and the dinners are tasty. Beer was reasonably priced too about about £3.75 per pint.

As for the golf courses, we found the Forest and Pines courses a bit similar in the challenges they set. You had to be fairly long and accurate off the tees and were still left with long irons in for the majority of holes. I’d recommend perhaps playing from more forward tees to maximise enjoyment.

The Beeches course offered more in the way of variety and although there were two very long par 4s, some of the holes were shorter and doglegged. We thought this was the most enjoyable of the three courses.

Overall we were very happy with our experience.

Let me start by saying a big thank you for arranging our trip to the Forest Pines Hotel and Golf Resort. It has been a pleasure to deal with your golf travel.

We were very surprised on how easy and quick we were able to arrive at the hotel, easy parking both at the hotel and the Golf club. The hotel is well signposted too and just of Junction 4 of the M180.

The course consists of 3 9hole courses: Forest (3291yds), Pines (3551yds) and Beeches (3102yds) and although the courses run parallel, they are entirely separated by stands of trees. The tee boxes and fairways were well cut and well looked after, the greens are excellent and undulating with many featuring at least two tiers.

We purchased a Strokesaver Course guide and it was invaluable in negotiating the course so I’d recommend doing the same for other first timers. The water features are intimidating but negotiable, bunkers and lateral water ditches are well marked, but as I found to my cost the deep pot bunkers are nasty!!

The hotel was what you would expect from a 5star establishment with reception courteous and friendly, superb food and an excellent overall presentation. Prices are what you should expected from this standard of hotel; expensive but not overly so.

The four of us were all agreed we would return without hesitation.

Golf Course – Very good condition, greens all very nice, lots of trees making many fairways tight, a difficult but great course.

Clubhouse/19th hole – About £4 per pint and food expensive too but a great balcony overlooking the course to enjoy a few drinks on.

Hotel – The hotel was very good, the rooms were clean and modern, the food was excellent and the staff were very friendly.

Location – Very easy to find and park.

Overall verdict - I would rate Forest Pines at 9/10, the best resort overall we have visited so far.

Would I recommend YGT to a friend? Yes!
