Relaxing but could have been longer
Pros:

The staff were friendly, the swimming pool was warm and very nice, the warm water helped to keep my autistic son calm and enjoy the splashing time we shared.

Cons:

The bedroom had no coolbox(mini fridge to store bottles of water) the room came with no bottled water, the double bed was two single beds pushed together and dressed in double sheets, we had to ask the night porter for a fan to cool down the room and help my son and I to sleep. The wall sockets were placed behind heavy furniture which made it impossible for me to plug in my phone charger while using the socket for the kettle. We had to use water from the bathroom sink to make a cup of tea (which is disgusting )
My sons pizza he said was not done the way he'd have liked it. But he chose to not complain until he had eaten it.

Yes I would stay here again
Pros:

Location was perfect and they have a massive car park at the back of the property. There is also a big public car park in front of the property right next to the wooded park with walking trails.

Cons:

10 o clock breakfast finishes every morning and if you’re staying for a relaxing weekend that’s not the way to go. The old fashioned door key attached to a wooden piece of wood
