Response from the owner
Thank you for your feed back, it is very much appreciated. We have recently sprayed all around to try to deter the slaters and I think we are winning! They are harmless critters but are attracted by moisture, one of the joys of living with nature. Thank you again and please to hear you enjoyed your stay while playing golf at Barnbougle Dunes.
