Pros:

Room was very clean and comfy. Bed was perfect. Breakfast was stunning and staff very friendly and happy to help with any queries . Good quality tea and coffee in room

Cons:

Only minor detail was only getting one key card per room .meant if my partner went to the car the electricity went off as he needed to take key card to get back in the building.I imagine if I had asked for one I would have been able to get extra but wasn't too big of a deal .
