A HUGE surprise! A WAY-BETTER Hotel than we imagined - & EXCELLENT VALUE FOR MONEY!
Pros:

EVERYTHING - including Room, Location, Breakfast & STAFF!

Cons:

Nothing - except the cost of using the Hotel's own car park - which we did not use, in the end!

Nice
Pros:

I didn’t think it was fair having to pay for use of pool as in hotels this is always included and also our room the floor was so sloped it felt like we were on a ship I think I will request different room next time

Cons:

Sorry see above ! I love the hotel and the location but I will never see it fare to pay every day you use the pool that’s very unprofessional
