outdoor hot tub breakfast selection
The facilities are great. the leisure centre includes an outdoor hot tub. breakfast offered a really good selection. the grounds are fabulous too. I especially liked the mature trees, but the maintained lawns were just as wonderful.
the wifi signal wasn't very strong in the room with a balcony.

golf course tree selection gym facility swimming pool breakfast choice nice bar poor tv corner placement battery cover missing cover bar dinner long arrival
The golf course featured a lovely selection of trees, offering lots of variety and great looks. I found the gym and swimming pool facilities really good. Breakfast was well-organized, and I appreciated having the choice of the bar and restaurant..
The TV was placed away in the corner, difficult to view from the bed. The remote control had only one battery, and it lacked a cover to secure the batteries. The food quality was poor during our dinner at the bar, and it took a long time to arrive.

Our dinner took forever to arrive. I waited almost an hour and a half after ordering! They told me the kitchen LOST the order. It still took ages to get to us. The staff WAS nice, but that's WAY too long to wait when the place wasn't even busy.
