Fantastic staff and stay
Staff was amazing and super helpful front desk at all hours of the day was polite and friendly. They even let me check in early so I could get ready for the conference. Cleaning staff also stocked my room each day and it was lovely that they even provided me with gluten free snacks! It was my first time staying but I’ve already recommended it to family and friends and have even looked at planning another stay there.

We were disappointed that we got back from the Cold Chisel concert and the bar had closed 1/2 hour early. I then had to go to the bar to get sugar for our tea that we were having in our room as there was none in the room. Overall though a lovely stylish clean venue with lovely big rooms. The buffet breakfast was delicious and the coffee was great

What a beautiful resort. My family of 3 children and 2 adults had a beautifully appointed family room, with a most spectacular view of the hills and golf course. Besides the slamming of a few front doors, overall it was extremely quiet and we slept thru the night without hearing anyone else. The swimming pool was weird, but still fun. We had a great stay, with friendly staff and a peaceful rest. This was our first getaway in 3 years. We finally had a break from our busy schedule and LOVED it

Very poor customer service.
We had made a reservation for 2 adults and 2 kids in a room that states "sleeps 4". We only had one set of bed linen and quilt, and when I asked reception for an extra set so we could make the couch into a sleeping bed, the woman was extremely rude to me. She wanted me to pay extra despite my booking is 2 adults and 2 kids. She said, normally people sleep 4 persons in the one double bed! After half an hour waiting around 9pm, I went to reception, to ask for the quilt, so I could make the bed myself, and get my kids to sleep, she continued. She ended up calling me aggressive and it really ruined all of my trip being told I was aggressive towards the reception, when all I asked for was a quilt and bedlinen. I was not aggressive, and I feel they woman and her manager at reception handled the situation very poorly. My wife then went to reception, when I came back to the room and told her, they said I was aggressive. But the funny thing was, that when my wife came to reception, they suddenly was very apologetic towards her and the whole situation, and tried to smoothen us off with drink vouchers!? (despite we had two small kids that needed to go to bed) We kindly denied the drink vouchers. I will never stay there again at that "resort".

This is a great place to get away to with kids (whatever age) as there are lots of different activities/facilities in house to do. The reception staff are lovely. The dining was a bit iffy (both the casual and more formal restaurants) and there’s no room service which was really strange (but you can go and collect food/drinks and take it back to your room). However, if you choose to eat in your room you certainly get deprioritised compared to customers sitting in the restaurant physically. They didn’t cope well with being really busy. But if you just let go amd go with the flow it’s ok. Amazing grounds for lovely walks and the Premium Fairway View rooms are lovely.
