Enjoyed our 1 night stay here (non golfers but didn’t feel we missed out). Facilities/amenities at the hotel are great - it is huge! Room was of a high quality. Staff were very good and especially friendly. All at a very competitive price.
The only slight thing (and didn’t effect our stay) was there are areas which could do with a little tlc as they are starting to look a little tired (one example is the balcony area of our room).
Lovely family room, large enough for all our needs. The room was well presented although the rocking horse seemed unnecessary. As a decorative piece it was fine, but spoilt by the keep off sign. Room clean but the blinds were a bit tired. Breakfast was excellent. Lots of room and lots of choice. We will use the ESN again on a future visit.

Excellent food, facilities and very comfortable rooms. Would highly recommend a stay even if you don’t play golf. Very good value for money.
Hot tub had too much chlorine in was burning mine and my partners eyes so we had to get out. Other than that the hotel was clean and up to good standards.

Lovely room and pool. Had a great meal in the steak house
Everything was clean and tidy, staff helpful and courteous, food pretty good (decent breakfast buffet and dinner menu). A little chilly in the room even with the temp set to 26 but otherwise extremely comfortable room.
The staff were lovely and accommodating, the room was lovely and spacious. The water was not hot enough even after following the advice of the hotel so showers and baths were disappointing. The breakfast was okay however when ordered to room it arrived late and cold twice. The hotel lobby area was lovely
