Really impressed with the standard of the room and excellent food in the restaurant
Pros:

The location was excellent, close to the airport. We had a meal in the restaurant which was very good. All staff were friendly and very helpful. Would definitely recommend

Cons:

Continental breakfast the following morning was ok. The only we would criticise is there was no butter for the toast and no one to ask.

Pros:

The garden

Cons:

The manager has switched off the phones as they were busy so we travelled for 2 hours not knowing whether we would be too late bWe were given a twin room having booked a king size. The room was small. The washbasin was ridiculously small. The breakfast was poor. They did not know we had a pet despite me checking the pet box. And we had to pay an extra £25 - no prior information about this. The manager was obviously very tired and didn't seem bothered about the wrong room, the pretty charge, and the fact that the phones had been switched off

Pros:

Lovely seating area outside and reasonably priced.

Cons:

The stairs to the first floor were too steep, to carry a 20kg case up.or for the elderly.
