Horrible hotel got put into a horrible room no facilities unclean got kept up all night by noise next door until 5:30 am desire multiple complaints made. Seen similar reviews to this happening before. No refunds no help when complaining

My sister was married here on Saturday, 25th October 2025. We stayed on the Friday night.

On arrival, the reception staff were welcoming, calming and helpful.

The rooms, were extremely spacious. Small leather sofa, comfy chair and desk chair. It had all the usual mod cons. The bed was super comfy and spotlessly clean! As was the whole room. The ensuite was lovely, clean with a double shower cubicle.

You could also use their Spa, Sauna and Pool facility; just not recommended for fake tans LOL!

We went down to meet other family and friends and ordered something to eat. The price was worth it. The portion size was huge which surprised me. It's usually the opposite in such places, but not here.

Bar and waiting staff were quick and pleasant.

The Wedding Day
We had use of the boardroom for us to have our make-up and hair done and to store the dresses etc. We had breakfast brought up to us with coffee, water and fresh orange juice. We spent several hours here, getting photos etc done. The honeymoon suite became available and staff moved the Bride's case and clothes etc and she continued to get ready there.

Meal.
We all pre-ordered our meals and they were perfect! Again, the portion sizes were large. I was impressed with the size of cheesecake we got! Usually it's a slither on your plate, not here though. A very generous helping.

The rest of the evening was brilliant. So well organised it's obvious there is good communication between suppliers and venue staff.

A special thanks to Fraser. Fraser's organisation of the day, timings, advice, suggestions were absolutely second to none and an absolute credit to the industry. He knows his stuff! Such an easy person to get on with, always had a calm demeanour and a smile.

All the staff were fantastic. Nothing was too much for them. Every one of them had a smile, and everyone worked hard. I seriously recommend this venue for any event based on my experience there. All the guests feedback to us has been excellent. No-one left feeling disappointed. The whole day, the run up to the event and communication with my sister truly was second to none.

We had a very happy, relaxed bride and groom who thoroughly enjoyed their special day.

Thank you to all at Parklands Country Club.

We recently held our daughter’s 21st birthday party at Parklands Hotel & Country Club and couldn’t be happier with the experience. Jennifer, the function manager, was incredibly helpful in organising everything, from the drinks packages to the buffet menu. The Sandringham Suite looked stunning on the night, and the food and drink were excellent and well-priced.

The atmosphere was amazing — with fantastic lighting, a great DJ, fun photo booth, and a brilliant balloon display. Joel, the owner, was on hand throughout the night and made everyone feel so welcome. Special thanks to Jack and the bar staff who were all friendly, professional, and on the ball.

Our daughter and her guests had a fantastic night. Would highly recommend Parklands to anyone planning a

I’m not usually one for leaving reviews, but after the awful experience my family and I endured yesterday, I feel compelled to share this in hopes of saving others from a similar disappointment next year.

As a family who traditionally enjoys Christmas Day at home, this year we decided to try something different. We booked Christmas lunch at Parklands, expecting a festive atmosphere, good food and a memorable experience. At around £100 per head, it wasn’t cheap, but we thought it would be worth it. Unfortunately, we couldn’t have been more wrong.

From the moment we arrived, it was clear something was off. The atmosphere lacked any warmth or festivity—cold both literally and figuratively. The staff seemed stressed, and we were escorted to a cramped booth in the far corner of the room. We had booked for six people, though two couldn’t make it due to illness. Frankly, six people in that booth would have been impossible; it was barely comfortable for four.

We were directed to a table in the centre of the room for “hors d’oeuvres”—a pitiful display of sad, soggy finger food on stale white bread. Not exactly the start we’d hoped for.

When the starters arrived, they set the tone for the rest of the meal. Served on tiny side plates, the food was carelessly piled high with no thought to presentation. It was obvious nothing had been prepared to order. This was confirmed when the mains arrived just minutes later.

Three of us had ordered turkey, and one chose seabass. The plates were only slightly larger than a side plate and the quality was abysmal. Everything was piled up on the plate, overcooked, mushy and varying shades of brown. The roast potatoes tasted stale, as though they were reheated leftovers and the pigs in blankets were made with the cheapest pork imaginable. Two of us couldn’t stomach it and requested steaks instead.

When the steaks arrived (in a mere two minutes), they were no better. Overcooked to the point of being inedible, with big chunks of sinew dangling from the meat, they were served on the same sad, mushy pile of overcooked sides. It was a far cry from anything resembling a festive meal.

Dessert, if you could call it that, was equally dismal. Clearly store-bought, it lacked any freshness or flavour and none of us touched it.

What made the experience even worse was the dismissive attitude of the staff. When we raised our concerns, the server seemed annoyed. Even the elderly owner, who shuffled around the room asking for feedback, offered only a mumbled and insincere apology when he saw our untouched plates, before shuffling away.

This wasn’t just another lunch—it was Christmas lunch. A day meant to be special, where memories are made. I had flown halfway around the world to spend this time with my family, only to be served one of the worst meals we’ve ever had.

Parklands is also a hotel, so catering for large groups should be second nature to them. Instead, the entire experience felt like a money grab: a rushed, joyless assembly line designed to maximise profit while minimising effort.

If you’re looking for a festive, memorable Christmas meal, I urge you to look elsewhere. Parklands offers none of that—no atmosphere, no care and certainly no quality. Even a dog would turn its nose up at the food we were served.

PS. I wish i could upload photos to this site. You'd very quickly see where I am coming from.
