My husband and I decided to come here to celebrate our 15th wedding anniversary I did tell reception this when I booked hoping they d try to make it that bit more special but I was told anything I wanted would be extra This was never acknowledged We d booked a suite and had high expectations Mine dropped as soon as I saw in blue neon capitals on the beautiful gateway entrance THE MERE Fine dining is in the lobby - it reminds me of my old university canteen and there was nothing in the way of luxury to be found there The suite - 217 - is purely a cavernous Travelodge-type area living dining area with very tired chipboard furniture Scratched tables stained sofas a sideboard with a glass top which skidded off as I held on to it I m disabled and often use furniture to steady myself I nearly went flying with a large pane of glass Enormous bathroom which was admittedly beautiful - except for the high pitched whine of the extractor fan I thought my tinnitus was playing up to be honest No way of turning it off unless you went in in the pitch black The loo was so low slung it was reminiscent of those found in a primary school As for flushing the damned thing - you need to have a steroid fuelled thumb No good for a woman with long nails at all Room service menu Mere burger soggy stringy McD s type things burned at the end vegan fish chips this was a culinary nightmare and one I won t forget in a hurry It s still repeating on me now I managed 1 2 one fillet a few chips and then gave up The warm breads were those you buy part baked from Tesco then bake off in your own oven The dip urgh A bowl of what tasted like sunflower oil and a teaspoon of balsamic Basically you re just dipping warmed up rolls in Spry Crisp n Dry Vile Today I ve been nauseous sluggish and I can still feel a heavy weight in my stomach I was just relieved I d brought some sandwiches Both of us felt ill afterwards So a nice warm bubble bath to relax one raggedy bathrobe between two of us Snacks biscuits are 1 50 A tiny box of chocolates 3 25 Two sweeteners one hot chocolate sachet This is a vast McMansion in beautiful grounds - only accessible to golfers Rooms are tired tatty with cheap nasty furniture Food is chucked in to a deep fat fryer and thrown on a plate Maintenance needs to overhaul the place We left after 3 hours Genuinely And I ve never been so happy to get home from our monthly treats of hotel overnights We re purportedly getting a call from management to discuss this d bacle Will we My gut says no but let s give them the benefit of the doubt eh These are all the negatives A few positives clean warm a balcony so we could smoke friendly but very bored-looking staff who looked pretty scruffy on the whole in the dining areas beautiful views And best of all a couple was desperate for a room as my husband checked us out As it was fully booked he turned to them and said We re checking out because this place is horrible He then turned to the receptionist and said Let them have our room The couple offered to reimburse my husband who refused and simply said You take it We ve paid fully whether we stay or not Just have it He told front of house that in no way they should be charged as the room was fully paid up - bed breakfast and evening meals So hopefully they ll have got their bed which they really needed So we paid 100 hour for the privilege of a glorified Premier Inn

WARNING DON T JOIN MERE GOLF AND COUNTRY CLUB

I was a member of the Mere golf club for a week until another member there stole my Gold Rolex watch worth tens of thousands of pounds from the changing rooms The manager there a chap called Gary who dealt with the issue is the worst manger that I ve ever come across in the whole of my career in business management His judgement and professionalism is way below average for his position How this guy has got that position at Mere I will never know He refused to call the police or revoke the Guys membership who stole my watch even after it was proven that the guy had my watch in his locker and after the one of the staff who found it in the locker signed the incident report stating that the watch was stolen The perpetrator was even given a chance by the staff which was planned and asked if he had seen the watch to which he replied A what a watch no mate Gary the manger then said to me that based on the facts presented and on a business level Quote I have decided not to revoke the persons membership based on these two factors So letting two members go at 2k per annum and letting a thief stay at 1k per annum is a good executive business decision is it Gary s business management skills are 2 10 and does not have the ability to run a cafeteria never mind an establishment like Mere golf club Think twice before joining this club especially whilst this guy Gary is in charge It s definitely gone down hill since he has been managing it as you can see by other peoples reviews Plus your goods and valuables are not safe there Bad management and poor decision making not to mention insulting I m the victim and I have been treated worse than the thief He even had the audacity to ask me to leave the club and said to staff to call security The reason for this is very clear It was because I pointed out his management skills and contradictions and definitely because he was embarrassed at his own decisions in front of his staff You don t ask the victim to crime to leave I m taking this matter to the board of directors anyway people because this chap has no clue how to run a bath never mind Mere Golf club and the people at the top deserve to know who they have running the place At least his staff know now how poor of a manger he is and will be silently laughing about his Quote it s business remark Just to let you know Gary 3-2 1so that s a 2k loss buddy and the thief stays on at 1k per annum Stay somewhere else and don t join here there are lots more country clubs to join people don t give these your money it s not safe and not run by professionals
