"Staff really stood out! They were lovely and helpful. I messaged to say we were arriving before check-in so would there be anywhere we could get changed/leave our bags so they did our room first to ensure we could get in it on arrival! Breakfast was tasty with actually nice vegan bacon and the room was incredible with a gorgeous bath!"

"The room was dusty, staircase leading to the pool had cobwebs and many dead insects on them. The shower in the pool area used after swimming was mouldy along the bottom of the shower tray at the front. The food in the restaurant was very good, however it would be of benefit to customers who want to book the restaurant if the hotel explained before booking that you can choose food from both of the available menus."
