Excellent Hotel

Excellent hotel with lovely comfortable rooms. Check in was easy with all staff being very polite and helpful. We weren't there for an evening meal was breakfast was delicious and great to get a freshly cooked breakfast as opposed to a buffet. There is also a large car park, with the hotel being a very short stroll from the golf course.
