Fantastic hotel. While a golf hotel we loved staying here so we could walk a links course and enjoy the beach. Our Junior Suite overlooked the first tee and the 18th green. We could watch golfers from 7 am to 10pm. Food was great. Staff incredibly friendly and helpful.

At time of booking we asked for room near elevator as one guest v elderly and disabled. No-one responded. I checked again upon actual check in and was assured we’d be in room closest to elevator. In actual fact we were 2nd last room furthest from elevator and 10-12 rooms in between us they could have offered. Was also told at 2pm that we were too early for room, but that they let us know when it was free. They did not let us know. Rooms decent but v basic. Think 3 star at best. Pool area quite busy as seems to be locals facility too. As a result we chose not to use. We opted for the DBB option, but be aware you will struggle to get 2 courses for the dinner allowance. Reasonable value nonetheless. On check out no receipt as yet sent to us with charges. Overall ok, but could probably do with upskilling the staff.

Great setting. Friendly staff. But the dinner was not very good. Gym and pool very good. Breakfast was pretty good. The view over the golf course is excellent and probably worth the money just for that

Nice hotel but not if you're thirsty

Friendly welcome and the upgrade to a junior suite for £20 definitely worth it - the Padraig Harrington suite looking over the first tee and 18th green. Nice breakfast served by friendly staff. Drinks at the bar ridiculously expensive
