Went with my sister we had a brilliant time, lady on reception was lovely nicest reception lady I have ever had in a hotel and I've been in a few. Nice walk round golf course, nice spa lots more seating round the pool this time. I'm glad they didn't have the ice machine in the spa as the last time we went, kids were eating it not good when customers use it on there bodys. Restaurant after walk round golf course was very nice after for coffee ☕️ our room was amazing cannot fault any thing in the hotel. Outside was lovely too, only one thing could have looked better is the little park area needs a bit of tidy up. Dinner and breakfast were amazing too in the restaurant, me and my sister are going to make it our yearly thing. Thank you for making our time amazing.

Returned for a round of golf after many years since my last visit, pro shop is still very good with a solid selection of gear. Breakfast sandwich and coffee in the upstairs bar was very good and friendly staff. Regarding the course I was left a little disappointed, it has been a long time since my last visit of which I remember it being excellent but the course seemed a little tired. The greens were very patchy in places and painfully slow, and fairways and tee boxes were quite long. That being said it’s still kept tidy around the courses and it’s still a very good looking course on the eye and a testing track.

I do recommended to renovation practice area. It's dirty and old!! But 3 golf courses are absolutely stunning as always!! You can see Pines Bar photos menu on my post! Our snack lunch is great 👍🏻 👌.

More of a 4.5, but just a couple of minor let downs. Firstly, it was about -1, so naturally the course was a bit frosty in places, but for £30 you won't get better value for a winter round of golf. We played the Forest/Pines layout, and every hole was different and presented different challenges. It is a well thought out lay out, where anything wayward will get punished, but not to the point of not feeling like you can get yourself out of a tight spot. The few let downs were - Some tee boxes were in play, others were off winter mats that were the size of doormats, and they were horrendously slippy (a mixture of the cold weather, but they were all well worn too). Every pin was right at the front edge of every green - Again, it's winter on a very good golf course so naturally you expect the greens to be protected, but it just meant you were putting through a very trodden area each time, and for the better golfers out there, there was no real reward for finding the centre of a green, or flighting a shot over the hazards etc. The Pines Bar was a nice spot, but there was no indication if food was available, other than empty plates that had been left on 4 or 5 tables , and there wasn't a menu for food in sight. Overall, it's the middle of winter, so you're never going to see or play a course at it's true stature, so we will return in the Spring and see what it's like, but certainly worth the money at this time of year

It's OK. It's the only decent hotel in area which gives them a bit of a monopoly. Rooms themselves are looking a little tired and could do with new carpet and and a good deep clean (dust all around headboard). Beds are well past their best too. I had a room with ac which only went down to 21c. I booked a room with ac as I like a cold room for sleeping in. Asking in reception I was told this is centrally controlled and can't be changed. A few hours later my colleague checks in and has also booked a room with ac and his went down to 18. Few min on Google and mine went down to 16. I don't know if reception staff were told to say this due to penny pinching or if they didn't know or simply didn't care but I didn't really appreciate it after spending up to £200 a night for a room. Fitness facilities are OK with large pool, steam and sauna. Food doesn't have enough variety for evening meals and is very expensive. Sutton Arms down the road is good if you want a change of scenery. Breakfast was excellent but coffee machine is powdered milk. Better with the filter coffee and fresh milk which is on offer.
