“This lakeside escape is more than just a pretty view; I appreciate that they are welcoming to pets, complete with dedicated facilities. The golf course, designed by Christy O'Connor Jnr, is a draw, but the real find is the family-friendly ethos and focus on wellness. It feels like a proper getaway spot, balancing activity with relaxation.”

I recently stayed at Glasson Lakehouse and had a mixed experience. The location is stunning, with beautiful views of the lake and golf course. However, the room I stayed in had some maintenance issues and the dinner options were limited and not very satisfying. Overall, it was a bit disappointing considering the price we paid for our stay.

The room was quite shabby chic with gaps in the floorboards. It had a lovely view of the lake but faced maintenance issues like malfunctioning taps. I would have liked a long mirror, as that's a standard feature in many hotels.
