We would definitely stay here again
Pros:

The beds were were very comfortable, the bedding & towels spotless.
Large flat screen tv in the bedroom.
The breakfast was gorgeous & very generous portions. Staff in the restaurant the night before & at breakfast were attentive, & so friendly.
Great value for money & would definitely staff again.

Cons:

The bathrooms could be updated but the cost to stay would probably increase so to be fair, they were clean & the towels are great.
