My son had his wedding reception here, there was some concern, as the staff turnover seems to be high. However, the place is fantastic, I had room one which was fabulous, the weather was sunny and warm and a great time was had by all.
There is a new manager called John, who seems to be the reason for the better atmosphere, he has this nice and strange view that they are there to service their customers, which if you read other reviews of this place was not something that was promoted by the management.
So the food for the wedding was fine, could have done with more staff, but my Salmon Salad was excellent. my chicken was only ok, but pear tart was nice, several of my family members commented on how nice they thought the food was!
There are some niggles; they wouldn't/couldn't provide a mike for the speeches, there was a huge price hike on drinks from the hotel bar price to the hired room price ( pint of San Migel £2.90, now £3.30), there was also only one waitress around for all the breakfasts in the morning.
In saying all that it's a fantastic venue, and providing John stays on as Manager and is able to weed out or motivate some of the staff then the place will get better, it deserves to.
I wasn't able to take my clubs which I regret as it looks like a great course, and the Golf deals they offer £125 for Room/Dinner/Golf is quite frankly a steal.
Our family wedding, went wonderfully, glorious weather and no one had anything but a great time. I agree with some of the previous reviews, having had a very nasty and rude lunch here in May, So, in summing up. Providing the staff training/attitude/turnover issues are resolved, this place is a little gem!
