We loved the property, food, service, golf course, restaurant, and pool. We are looking forward to returning next year.
This is a fabulous resort in a beautiful area. Great golf course, scenic location, professional and hospitable staff, excellent dining. We are recommending it to all our golfing friends and look forward to returning!
An excellent hotel. Both staff and furnishings were top class.
While not having a restaurant in the hotel the golf clubhouse served really good food and at reasonable prices.
Would definitely stay there again.
This hotel is staffed by caring people, who always make my wife & I feel looked after. We have stayed 2-3 times each year for a number of years now and enjoy the peace and quiet, however the price of accommodation has risen sharply since Covid as lots of places have, and the bar now shuts at 9pm along with a lack of attention to sunbathers at poolside so getting food / drinks was very difficult at times- I think the increase in prices should mean that there is more attention for residents poolside and bar / room service should be extended to 11pm
Pros: Very clean and quiet. Staff was friendly and helpful.
Cons: No room service, restaurant closes at 8 pm. No coffee machine in the room and I've never been to a hotel that doesn't provide at least 1 bottle of complimentary water per day before this hotel. Strange for the cost of a nights stary vs cost of a bottle of water.

The beautiful nightmare began upon arrival. Arrived very hungry and tired. The restaurant closed at 6p and there was no room service. The par room they assigned me had a broken AC. I complained three times and was told it was just weak AC. On the third day I found the operations manager who admitted the AC was broken and moved me after two days of horrible sleep. The new room was an upgrade but was missing black out curtains. The place is poorly staffed including the restaurants. The golf course is beautiful and well maintained. I did my best on very little sleep which put a damper on my vacation.
No room service, internet did not work in the room and no fix possible, staff did not know what they were doing, very bad value for money, definitely not 4* more like 2* would never stay again
Das Zimmer, die Anlage, das Frühstück war gut. Was fehlte, ist Kaffeemaschine/Wasserkocher und Trinkwasser auf dem Zimmer. Selbst auf Nachfrage nichts zu machen.

Et klassisk sjarmerende veldrevet hotell som alltid leverer høy kvalitet
Super dejligt hotel med fine faciliterer. Ærgerligt at tennisbanen ikke var tilgængelig, da det var den vi havde valgt hotel efter. Men personalet var hjælpsomme ift at finde alternativer.
