"Our room along the tenth Fairway was clean and tidy. The TV did not work fully for 3 days. There was no food for 3 days. Overall the property is very run down. There were very few other guests mid - week. The golf course was in very good condition. Once obviously a very up market complex but it has aged and not been well maintained. We received a very cheap deal and we have stayed many times over the years. Last few times nothing has improved. A pity as it is an interesting picturesque golf...
