No hot water for shower. When staff was informed, they said they'll fix it, although this only benefit the next guest. No offer of hot shower elsewhere or reduction to bill etc. Disapointing.

Easy and convenient parking. Friendly and welcoming staff. Excellent restaurant with great options for the whole family. The room was clean but hot as we happened to be there on a rare hot day. We had dinner there and the breakfast included with our stay was great. Many options for breakfast and were all popular with our family. Thank you.

Williams family stay

We stayed in a large family room with lots a space for a family of 5. The room was large and clean bathroom was good size and clean kids all had there own beds my only issue was our bed was a little on the hard side for me but everyone’s preferences are different so I wouldn’t necessarily mark it down on this. Breakfast in the morning was lovely and I would highly recommend this place to anyone staying in the area. We will be back again for sure.

Convenient if you're in the area

Pleasant place to stay and located in a quiet area. The rooms are immaculately clean, warm and have everything you need. The staff are friendly and the breakfast is nice and fresh with ample choice. We have stayed twice at this location, although we prefered the seperate annex, rather than the main building. We were in room 8 on our last visit. It is above the dining room, so was rather noisy on an evening and during breakfast time. The room itself was lovely, but soundproofing could be better.
