Perfect location. We didn’t eat at the hotel so can’t comment. The staff were pleasant and efficient. The garden area is beautiful with plenty of seating. The only thing was that the room was so hot. A fan was provided but luckily I’d also taken my own. The windows don’t open far for security.

Great overnight stay

We stayed for one night. Lovely lady on reception, polite, efficient and friendly. Beautiful room (we were given an upgrade), very spacious, clean, comfortable bed. Plenty of choice with tea, coffee, biscuits etc. The toiletries were good quality. Lovely big bathroom. The room was mega hot but there was a great fan so no problem. Would recommend.
