Our stay was way to short, it was quiet and relaxing with enough activities to keep you interested if you were looking for more - top class golfing facilities, a pool, sauna, steam room and jacuzzi and if shopping is your thing Solihull was 17 mins away by car

Hotel rooms were fantastic very clean tidy extremely big bathrooms massive big beds lovely and hot rooms are very comfy. Would stay here any time again and great prices. Three course meal I would highly recommend fantastic swimming pool and Jacuzzi And sauna and steam room with spa treatment rooms and additional changing rooms if needed and hotel was beautifully decorated for the Christmas period with multiple Christmas trees and Christmas decorations throughout the entire hotel making it feel very festive must be seen and try it for yourself.

Disliked: Amenities
It is a nice location away from town. Dining the first night was very noisy - a group of golfers and it took management over an hour to ask them to quieten down after complaints from other patrons. Noisy in the corridors at night - revellers coming back from partying - awaken three different times with conversations and laughing. Bedroom was cold. Drainage in the bath tub slow so stagnating water. Overall, an unpleasant experience. I shan't be returning to this location.

We stayed at this hotel as 4 friends getting together for a birthday weeekend we werent dissapointed by the size of the rooms and the layout however we were a little dissapointed by the bar facilities that were on offer we understand that it is a golf club but would have thought you would have a more relaxing place for guests to sit and unwind for such a large hotel its lacking in adequate seating would be much better with big comfy chairs and a nice bar area to golfy for my liking
