Very reasonably priced accommodation, not too far from town and things to do but also plenty of good recreational options if you didnt want to venture out with the gym being one of the better equipped hotel gyms ive tried. A bit dated but thats reflected in the price, staff were great

Ant, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The breakfast was great - especially the service from the older gentleman who kept an eye on all proceedings, making sure it all ran smoothly. Check in took quite some time as did the time I asked for an extra pillow - Saturday night around 7 pm. The facilities were very well kept, lovely friendly cleaner on Saturday afternoon on way to pool. Great place which we will recommend to everyone. Just wondering whether I should have got a discount for breakfast as joined as a member.

Ronilo, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Although it’s dated in many areas, especially the rooms, all the things that needed to be great were - heated pools, spa and grounds were wonderful. Limited dining options and nothing in a mid range anywhere. No cutlery, plates or microwave as well don’t help when travelling with kids. As mentioned the rooms really need a renovation, but we’re absolutely comfortable, warm and quiet. Our balcony view over a small garden and water feature was perfect. Whilst some staff were a little more stern than I’d like, overall amazing people.
