Wonderful stay with fantastic views

The reception provided a warm welcome. I booked a golf view room and it had amazing views of the courses. The room felt spacious and clean, even boasting a large shower room. The bed was huge and comfortable, just what I needed after a long day.
The carpet seemed a bit dated. Otherwise, everything was great.
