Disappointing . Very crowded with conference/ get together for camp organisers. Room overlooked two roof tops and top of a tree. Dining room lacking in atmosphere, but understand new owners are trying to update. Breakfast was so crowded and not enough staff. The building itself is lovely and the entrance hall and staircase elegant. Overall we were very disappointed.

My room was tired and in need of refitting and decorating.Our booking was made for twin rooms but we were booked in doubles. I had given a list of guests to YGT so it would be sorted when we arrived. Having to ask for discount every time we used the bar is crazy, a card should be issued to all golfing guests to show at the bar. The discount we thought we were getting was not deducted unless we asked for it every time. Many of us did not get it until the second night. Very poor attention to our rights. However the food was good and plentiful although it could be hotter and the course was terrific. Overall we had a great few days Thank you.

The hotel is set within beautiful surroundings, and although we stayed during a busy time (Masters weekend) the vastness meant that we never felt on top of other people. Although the room we stayed in was slightly dated, all the amenities are very good. It appeared that some rooms were going through an upgrade so I hope this continues throughout the hotel. Overall the hotel was well equipped, the staff very helpful and friendly, and the food was also very good.

Lovely venue with bags of history and great location with striking views towards Manchester and surrounding area. The accommodation is spread over three adjoining wings so a lot of walking back and forward to the facilities if you happen to be in the third wing. Our room was very spacious and new though in the attic space and not sure I'd like it in a hot summer. Great views however. No storage space which was a little weird so all our clothes had to stay in the suitcases. Restaurant very good, let down a little bu an almost identical menu on both the two nights we stayed and the choice was limited. We both made one wrong choice of food. The food was well presented and the staff really good. It's a very popular wedding venue which can be both nice and tiresome.

The hotel looks and feels tired, the lock on the room door constantly had an alarm going off every time we left the room ( faulty door handle), the room was a double but felt quite basic. The spa was a disappointment for a number of reasons, firstly the changing rooms were been refurbished so you had to change in bedroom 101 then walk quite a long distance in your swimming trunks to the spa, no dressing gowns were available in the changing rooms , there was no way of locking the lockers so I had to leave my clothes in an unlocked locker, I had to take valuables with me to the pool, the steam room was faulty, I eventually found a member of staff to report it to who told me he knew and someone had been called out, so it was just a case of sauna and pool.The golf course was ok, semi rough was a little long and needed cutting as it was easy to lose a ball only a couple of feet off the fairway, we paid for a buggy which ran out of battery after 9 holes, we changed it but it added 15 mins to our round.The evening dinner was superb although the staff seemed a little lost if not slow, we had to repeatedly ask where drinks we had ordered were, the manager became aware and did in fairness knock one round off our bill.

Arrived in the afternoon for a booked 1.00pm tee time. All good, the course was quite wet and the greens had been scarified but overall a very nice course. Next morning we were early finishing breakfast so went to see if we could tee off earlier than our 10.30 booking. We were told someone had tried to contact us to advise us our tee time had been changed to firstly 7.30 and then 9.20! It was 9.45 by this time. As far as I was concerned no one had tried to get hold of us. Then saw a confirmation of booking email had come through with the new tee time on. It wasn't an alert email and I had already received a confirmation of booking and thought it was a duplicate as it seemed to be informing me your golf travel had received payment. We were informed we had to be off the 16th hole by 1.00pm as they had a shot gun start. We raced round and just made it. Not very happy experience!

An interesting, undulating course with a number of testing and challenging holes for the high handicapper golfers, especially when playing it for the first time. In good condition, busy but never held up and friendly bar and golf staff in the Golf Lodge. Although I did not use a buggy this is a course where the less ambulant golfers might benefit from using one. A first class course in lovely countryside with tremendous views. I would recommend and would plan to return to play it again.

If we had played this course on a lovely summer's day then I could have written a completely different review! That being said, although the wind was ridiculous, the course was very fun, with not one hole being below par! One downside would be the over-hiring of buggies by certain groups, with some players having one to themselves in a group of four. We played behind some lovely older gentlemen who were visibly struggling with the steep inclines towards the end of the rounds - I would recommend booking these in advance. Overall the course was immaculate, the greens were quick but very receptive, and the overall layout made for a good challenge.

A very mountainous course; steep inclines in every direction, left, right, up and down so keeping the ball on the short grass was a significant challenge on most holes. Unfortunately they had hollow tined the greens just a few days before our visit and hadn't dressed them with sand so the holes made putting in a straight line almost impossible. The 5th green felt like stimp 10; the 18th green in comparison would be stimp 4 and every other green anywhere in between. It made consistent putting impossible. Some of the course was quite scruffy but it is a very large, centuries old estate in need of investment and the money available is all going on the accommodation in the main house. We were a two ball in amongst mainly 3's and 4's so very slow for us. Most golfers were poor/high handicap societies in buggies so quite slow golf. I wouldn't personally go back again but it is worth at least one visit just to stay in the hotel.
