Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The property was clean, in a lovely location and the staff welcoming, If I had to comment it would be that there was no hand towels and only 1 drinking glass in the room and the rooms were not sound proof in any way. Saying that we did enjoy our stay, it provided a perfect base for us.

Really nice stay, staff were fabulous, they even made a fuss over our dog. Food was fab also. The only thing I would change is to pay more for a bigger room but that’s on us. Highly recommended

Everything was good until we went down for breakfast. We didn't have much choice (although we went down about 9 am). They didn't have enough staff. Poor lady had to run around to top up the juice or the eggs.
