Small issues. Nothing major. Comfy room
The stay was absolutely fine. Great view of the lake. The only real issue was the multibox was too flimsy for my charger, and a face towel from a previous guest was left in the shower

Perfect location
Basic accommodation but adequate for our needs. Dedicated parking space. Perfect location on the lake front. Extra bed in every room. Friendly staff on reception. Allowed a late check out which was great.

Don’t stay here
Would not recommend, one of the most uncomfortable nights. Mattresses were older than me!

The shower was unsafe, no hand rails, no where to put soap, face cloth etc,in the shower and towel rail broken. Because there is a step up and into the shower, there definitely needs some firm handrail.

Our room (for 3 single people) was dated and shabby. The single beds were uncomfortable. TV was old and to the side of the room which made it difficult to watch. We stayed 2 nights, rubbish wasn't emptied or towels replaced. Wouldn't stay here again as very overpriced for the facilities offered.
Owners need to put hand in pocket and do some upgrading.
