I stayed here with my family (wife & 2 young children- 5 & 3) whilst staying for a family christening nearby. We were very impressed overall, with two things in particular standing out:
- The leisure club, with its 23m pool, spa, sauna, steam room and massive fitness suite. I have been in many more expensive hotel leisure clubs that did not come close to these facilities.
- The price, which was remarkably cheap for what was on offer.
There was nothing about this hotel that I could particularly complain about- breakfast was good, rooms were a reasonable size and well equipped, staff were fine. Given the price, I think this is the best value for money I have ever had from a hotel in the UK!

This hotel seems to get mixed reviews though I have never had any issues staying here which I have done quite frequently over the last 6 months. Rooms are always clean and staff are always very friendly.
Restaurant is overpriced though I have never had a complaint about the quality of the food. However after sampling nearly everything on the menu it can get a bit boring so they should try and change the menu choices.
All rooms have free wireless internet and all the basics you would expect. Rooms have no air-conditioning though so on a warm night it tends to stay warm even with windows open.

The rooms haven't been refurbished to the same style as the other De Vere Venues. There is a flowerly bed spread and wall paper with old tired bathrooms. As you walk into reception it smacks of the lovely modern De Vere brand but then walk into the bedroom and it's really disappointing. Everything else is great e.g. food, pool but please update the rooms like your other hotels as they are great.

1 night stay on Saturday night for a Gala night they had on, which was excellent - lovely food, excellent service, and a good band. Everyone in our party enjoyed it.
Reception and public areas all lovely, staff very friendly and plenty of them. The room I had was a bit dated decor-wise (so many hotels like putting flowery bedding/curtains in the rooms don't they! Is it to make us think we're staying at our Mum's house?), but the bed was comfy, everything as it should be in the bathroom, kettle, iron, tv and radio all good.
Breakfast was fantastic - plenty of food on the buffet and all of it piping hot, good choice of the healthier stuff too. Reception had warned us breakfast was going to be very busy, but it wasn't that bad, and plenty of staff were around.
Glad I braved the roads in the snow. We all had a good stay, and some of us were talking about going back if they do another Gala night. I'd probably join in.

Arrived at Hotel after travelling from the South of France, approx 11pm Tuesday evening, had been travelling over 24hrs so to arrive and be greeted with a smile and consideration due to our long journey( room upgrade) to a quieter side of hotel we felt very grateful and relieved. This hotel has always been our first choice when visiting family in the area and will continue to be so as food, room and all the staff are truly helpful, friendly and easy to deal with.
Keep up the good work, here for another week and looking forward to our continued stay.

Overall the stay was really good.The room was lovely and the pool was nice.The tiles around the jacuzzi are very dirty and need a good clean, but apart from that excellent leisure facilities.The hotel reception manager needs some training in customer care.The manager had a terrible attitude and the way she spoke to myself and other clients was appalling.Everytime we walked past reception or was sitting in reception she seemed to be arguing with clients and was very defensive . Breakfast was lovely and the evening entertainment was enjoyable.

Had 2 nights stay at this hotel on arrival very impressive on the eye , nice entrance ,reception very nice too staff where very friendly stayed on the 2nd floor above the bar didn't hear a thing all night . Used the gym and pool facilities both days really nice helpful members pool is fantastic. 2nd night booked into a Bee Gees night at the last minute staff really helpful in accommodating us as we were late booking had a great night until the early hours bar prices a bit stiff but expected at a hotel. Only downside of our stay was the breakfast which was cold as it had been sat under the warming lights for sometime,tea, coffee and toast making was a bit manic as it got a bit busy !!! could do with a later check out also as 11 is to early on a Sunday morning... would stay there again...

We came as a large hen night party for the dirty dancing night. We had a great time. I found the staff a little disinterested and rude at reception but this wasn't the case in the bar, pool, cleaners etc as they were all great. The pool is fab and the changing facilities great. My room was lovely, spotlessly clean, quiet and had everything I needed but my friend's room needed some decorating updated (mine was much more modern).
The meal at night was good, the drinks very expensive and the dirty dancing singers/show was poor (they couldn't sing!) but it was still a lovely night and overall I would definitely reccomend this hotel.
Very cheap considering everything that we had included in the weekend and the marvelous pool would be worth every penny.
Nice breakfast but totally self service, including making your own toast! I found this a little bizarre!

We had the pleasure of staying at this hotel for the 2nd time to celebrate my daughters wedding. The staff went out of their way for us, were very helpful and made everybody welcome. Food was great and will be going back for New year.

I came here for a friend's Hen do. There were 6 of us in 3 twin rooms all adjacent to each other. We started off with a spa morning. Loved the pool and jacuzzi but gutted about the number of children (3 of us being teachers you see...). Luckily after a yummy lunch (massive too) the children had seemed to have left the pool. 4 of our group had treatments booked throughout the afternoon. I had tried to book but they were full :( never mind. We then retreated to our rooms to get ready for the evening's dirty dancing tribute night. We had a 3 course meal (although I had ordered a vegetarian meal they had run out by the time they got to us...so I had pasta and sauce instead. Luckily for them it was yummy.) then the cabaret show began followed by a disco.
The following morning I had one of the most delicious (and big) breakfasts I have ever had!!! FAB!
All-in-all fantastic value for money when having a party night and over-night stay was only £60 - yes! £60 for 3 course meal, cabaret show, disco, bed & breakfast. :)
Definitely recommend for a Hen do. We were able to decorate our table with balloons and sprinkles etc prior to us going in which was a nice surprise for our friend.
