Ruined by pool rules not being enforced
Pros:

Lovely staff could not have been more helpful. Nice hotel

Cons:

The pool was open to the public which we didn’t know when we booked . Due to heat it was overcrowded with children. Babies without nappies in pool , kids jumping and on inflatables in a small packed pool despite signs but there was no one to enforce any of the rules . I had a ball thrown at me and got abused by the mother . Not the quiet break I had hoped for . Also charged me £13 for one piece of toast with an egg is ridiculous .

Perfect anniversary get away.
Pros:

Absolutely beautiful location, friendly and helpful staff. Chefs were extremely good with dietary needs. Room was perfect! We paid a little extra for the pool side room. It was perfect perfect perfect. Pool great when not busy.

Cons:

The only thing that could've been better was that there were a lot of children in the pool in the day time (our fault for booking school holiday time) it made it hard to use the pool in the public slot times. I'm disabled and got kicked a few times in my bad leg and my partner in the man parts haha. We weren't cross as we understand and was nice to see the kids having a lovely time, however, it would've been nice to be able to use it more.

Fantastic stay! Great, heated outdoor pool, friendly staff and delicious breakfast!
Pros:

The outdoor pool was heated and ideal for us as a family to use, my 1-year old daughter love it. The staff were incredibly helpful and friendly. The breakfast was one of the best hotel breakfast I'd ever had, so much choice and utterly delicious.

Cons:

Luckily we had our car as there's no local shop in walking distance, however there was a co-op a 5-minute drive which we used for essentials.
