The room had good amenities and it was surprisingly quiet as our room faced the road. Breakfast times were really good and a good selection of choices. The evening meal was very generous, not sure if they changed the menu daily as we ate out the second night.

The room was spacious and had everything we needed. The fridge was a bonus. And our bathroom was huge with a large walk in shower and full sized bath. The toiletries were excellent. My other half has a new fav shower gel. The staff are also amazingly friendly and helpful. Breakfast was brilliant. We had one evening meal there which was fab. Would definitely return.

Everything superb again, albeit the breakfast was a little well done for my liking. I also think the bar food prices are a little pricey, but the quality of food was good.

Room was lovely and clean but we found the staff quite rude in general and cooked breakfast was poor, all cooked breakfast was over done. Nice for 1 night but I don’t think we would stay again.
