The hotel is a bit worn but quaint and quirky.
The welcome was good, there were no gowns in the room and you have to walk across a car park to get to the swimming pool . The waiting staff w we e not that attentive.

Would highly recommend!
It was a fantastic family trip!
Excellent location.
Kind and attentive staff.
Lovely, unique and clean room with a patio door opening onto the garden.
Had a calm and pleasant atmosphere throughout.
Really nice leisure facilities (number limited which meant a leisurely and relaxing time, even with children).
Fresh and tasty breakfast in a dining room that had a lovely ambience.
We’ll definitely be back!
