Our half way stop .

It's a lovely hotel staff were all very good and friendly, we felt that the bed could have been more comfortable, the breakfast was excellent.
Donald, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Good value, few improvements needed.

Breakfast choice was good, service was great. Good value stay for the 3 nights. Cleanliness could be improved. The bedding wasn't changed, even though it visibly needed to be. Given a larger room due to having a travel cot. Travel cot provided was great standard. Overall, happy with the stay.

Excellent trip away

We had a very pleasant stay. The room was very clean and the hotel was beautiful. The welcome was outstanding and all hotel staff were extremely helpful. My girls loved the swimming pool and said that they would like to go to the hotel again. We will definitely stay here when we are in the area again.
Loved our visit.
Fabulous family room!
Everything you needed for a comfortable night away.
Stephanie, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

If you can avoid this hotel, I'd recommend you did, we changed rooms because the first one was tiny plus the base of the bed was filthy, second room bigger but bed was like something that came off Noahs Ark, talk about passion killer, the bed squeaked just by looking at it, back broke as it was so uncomfortable, meal was horrible. We had booked for 2 nights but left after the first, when checking out noone wanted to know why we were leaving a day early,honestly stay clear.

Sally, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Room was clean but bathroom fittings seemed tired and in need of updating. Bed a bit hard and quite a small room. Plus side staff very friendly and helpful and breakfast was top quality.
