I had a very good stay at this hotel. The room was clean, comfortable, and well presented. Staff were friendly and welcoming, which added to the overall experience. The restaurant offered a wide variety of tasty meals, and the pool was a great bonus – clean and perfect for relaxing. Breakfast was amazing – a definite highlight! There was a fantastic selection of fresh food, and everything was well prepared and regularly replenished. The only downside was the car park, which is quite small and can be tricky to get a space in. That aside, it’s a very well-run hotel and I’d gladly stay again.
