Mar Hall Golf & Spa Resort

Looks can be deceiving. The photos of the rooms look amazing and as you drive up to the main building it is absolutely stunning! The staff were more than friendly and super helpful with one guiding us to our room through the maze of halls and corridors. Now this was where it all went downhill. Our room was in the Spa building, which had a very foisty and quite unpleasant smell. We arrived at a large but very gloomy room with no main light, just 2 spot lights over the wardrobe in the corner and 3 standing lamps of which only 2 worked. All we could here was the bass thumping from the gym just round the corner from the room but luckily we were going straight out. The next morning we were awoken by the bass thumping from the gym. There was no plug socket by the desk for the kettle so to make a brew you had to put the kettle on the floor in order to plug it in. There was no heating control at all and the room was very cold. The bed was very comfortable though, would have enjoyed a bit more sleep in it without the music coming from the gym. Think we'll stay at a premiere Inn or travel lodge next time, definitely wouldn't stay here again.
