Great value for money, staff good and friendly, food was good and very dog friendly as we travelled with 2 pet dogs.
Pros:

The staff were excellent and well informed and good at their jobs. The food at the bar was nice too and the pricing wasn’t bad either.

Cons:

The only downside to the the property was unfortunately kind of out of their control but we stayed during an unusual spell of hot weather and the rooms were absolutely boiling hot at night, we couldn’t even cool it down with the supplied fan in the room but again it was out of their control.

Hoped for a lot better
Pros:

The health facilities , room was ok. Cleaners friendly. Staff ok. Thanks for the decorated bed for my wedding day.

Cons:

The bathroom was tired. Chipped pain, chipped sink and bath. No lights around the mirror. The room was really dark. No top lights, have to keep the curtains open for light but on the ground floor means you are seen from the car park when trying to get ready. TV doesn't work, channels need updating with a new Ariel. TV remote filthy. Staff ok but not that friendly especially the health facilities, no towels, nearly wasn't allowed in even though we had 10mins before cut off, then kicked out 10mins before closing.

We very pleased with the stay at your hotel and are definitely coming back.
Pros:

We loved the two important facts:
The accommodation price included access to a gym and a swimming pool. Also, the pool was open and accessible to children as early as 7 am. We received a twin room that was spacious and well-sized, ideal for a family of three. We also liked that the room had a little fridge! Breakfast included good alternatives that were both fresh and delicious.

Cons:

Because it was a short stay of only one night, we did not notice anything we disliked.
