Cons:

The health suite is in poor condition and not especially clean. Near the toilets on entering the pool it stank of urine very strongly.

Room ok; Room refreshments poor; breakfast ok the cutlery so worn and blunt we could not cut bacon .
Pros:

After a long drive it would have been nice to have a buscuit and a cup of tea: one tea bag each and no biscuits. we had to go down to reception to buy a biscuit.. charged £1 for two biscuits. Not good.

Cons:

Room refreshments.

Very pet friendly and good breakfast
Pros:

Air conditioning

Cons:

We originally booked a twin room but the AC in the room is broken. The staff was so kind to swap us to another double room. However, the bed was just far too small…

It was a pleasant escape from ‘the world’ for a night.
Pros:

Friendly staff, cleanliness

Cons:

Not really anything to dislike. If reaching, I guess the pool was too busy to get a ‘proper’ swim in. But it may not have been so busy at a different time. I was only there 1 night.
