Lovely clean room. Well stocked tea and coffee tray. Lovely bottles of fresh water. Great facilities. One negative comment I found was that the lighting was a bit dark (I like to sew and struggled to see even right next to the lamp. All staff really friendly and helpful- especially Kelly!

Lovely Accommodation

Very friendly staff, very busy, could have done with another member of staff as they seemed a bit overstretched. Lovely location, nice & quiet. Good menu & food, nice atmosphere. Very comfortable bed. Would happily return & recommend.

A good overnight stay

Comfortable clean room. Lovely dinner at a reasonable cost, but had to wait a long time for order to be taken and food served. As we were in no hurry, it didn't matter but, had I been starving it would have been annoying. I would certainly stay here again
