Pros:

We received a very warm welcome on our arrival. The heated pool provided much needed relaxation after a long drive.
Despite it being a busy night in the restaurant there was still available parking out the front of the hotel.
The view out to the lake is stunning and provides an enjoyable outlook during meals. The service at breakfast was attentive and we liked the variety of food on offer.

Cons:

The bathroom was looking a bit tired.

Book the Disability Room. You won't be Disappointed
Pros:

We had a room for disability user and it was huge and close to the mobility carpark. The pool was not used: I think it was not heated. Beds both huge and comfy.
