8/10 Very good

Good but rooms need air con!

Hotel and leisure centre were lovely especially the outside pool and jacuzzi on a hot day! Dinner was average for the cost and did wait ages for a drink. Breakfast was tasty and good selection. No air con in the room which was the biggest problem on a hot night as lack of sleep ruined the overall stay.

Another great stay

Another great stay! Lovely room. Breakfast always wonderful. We also had lunch which was really good. The place and the staff never disappoint. We didnt catch the name of the lovely waitress who served us brekfast and lunch but she was very efficient and professional. We visited the spa twice which is always great - must try and book in the summer when we can sit in the gardens.
