Pros:

The staff were very friendly and helpful, particularly at check in and at breakfast. The room was spacious, with good facilities and a comfortable bed. The restaurant had a good selection of gluten free options and the quality of food was excellent. Breakfast was also very good. A shuttle bus was offered to take you to the town which was first for us.
