“A clean, comfortable stay in a great location with friendly staff — would definitely stay again.”
Pros:

“The property was clean and comfortable, with a very cosy bed. The location was excellent, being close to Cirencester and nearby tourist attractions. The staff were friendly and worked very hard.”

Cons:

Only one small issue — we struggled to find parking when we arrived in the dark. The next day we realised there were plenty of parking areas available. Perhaps clearer signage, such as ‘more parking this way,’ would be helpful for guests arriving later in the day.”

The 2 bed apartment was very spacious and had necessary kitchen equipment.

Great for a relaxing stay
Pros:

The rooms were spacious with enough room for 4 adults

Cons:

The information about the pool is sketchy - you can just turn up & not pay the £10 charge provided there is room but the information available doesn’t tell you that. Also, the breakfast charge is extortionate!

Beautiful apartment and views
Pros:

Loved the location, the apartment was great. Had everything you would need for a couple of days say.

Cons:

Access to the swim facilities were hard as the spaces allocated filled up very quickly for the size of the hotel. And additional £10charge seemed extremely high.
