One couple were given a room much inferior to the others & on a different floor. The set menu was not as expected & very disappointing. I have stayed there before and had a very good experience & that is why we recommended this to our friends. Unfortunately we won't be returning. I wouldn't recommend this again. It's a lovely setting but didn't live up to expectations. Vert dissappointed

Friday night went well drinks in the bar before a reasonable meal. Saturday we were asked to pre order our evening meal before going out to golf, this is always a strange thing to do when you’ve just finished breakfast. Snacks in the Claret Jug were expensive (even with the discount card) and not brilliant. We struggled to get pre dinner drinks as the bar was full of wedding guests, the only other bar is the Claret Jug. The evening meal was poor. Again drinks expensive.

After a wet afternoon on the course we had to queue for 20min to get booked in to you rooms only one person on reception. We booked twin rooms and we got double rooms not ideal for four men. The meal was booked for 6.30pm when we sat down we were told that that table was reserved for some one else but after checking it out it was for us seemed to be a bit of a shambles. Not nearly as good a stay as we had two years ago.

Booked 3 weeks prior to trip and requested 2 buggies for both rounds as my father in law has 2 hip replacements and struggles to walk course . Upon arriving at pro shop 45 minutes prior to tee off was told no buggies available as there was a corporate day and I quote “it’s been booked months and there’s nothing I can do” to cut a long story short was told in an abrupt tone that it’s up to my agent to request buggies and they hadn’t and if I wanted to wait until 11:00 am (it was 9:15 am at the time) there might be some available. For a 4 star hotel the staff both in pro shop and clubhouse could do with some customer service training .

We particularly liked the separate snug rooms (between Hadrian's Brasserie and the bar) where you could sit quietly with a drink. We believe a games room somewhere in the hotel would be a good addition with a snooker and/or pool table and a table tennis table perhaps. We found all the food and drink of a high quality, however we would like to see a wider selection of beers available. There was a choice of just 3 lagers and 2 ales across all the restaurants and bars.

The course layout is above average with the fairways tea boxes and general length of grass from fairway second cut to rough or on point. However the greens in particular were very poor and were probably suffering as a consequence of a very long hot summer however there were too many bare patches with long grass making the ball jumping around.
