Long weekend stay
The location and setting was perfect, very tranquil and peaceful. Enjoyed the walk around the picturesque golf course. Just what we wanted for the 4 night long weekend. Hotel, restaurant and golf club staff were very accommodating, polite, keen and very patient. However the Spa service was poor, no communication as to the treatment requirements or during the actual treatment, probably the worst massage I have had. The time period for the treatment was supposed to be 50 minutes but the masseuse left quietly after 35 minutes. Wouldn't recommend the Spa if visiting this hotel. The room was spacious and comfortable but does require some maintenance throughout. The hotel breakfast was spot on, but did have an issue with overcooked food for dinner, on the one night that we ate in the hotel restaurant, this was reported it to the head chef who assured us that the issue would be be investigated and rectified. The meals we had at the golf club house were found to be decent with no problems. Really enjoyed the facility and hotel ambience.

We booked at the hotel was then moved to a villa due to east coast radios booking at the hotel. This was ok and I did not mind. However no tea or coffee, toiletpaper or any ameneties in the villa. We also could not have breakfast at the hotel for which I paid and had to take our breakfast at the club house. The lady there very friendly and helpful, but breakfast not great. I felt that we were done in somehow
