"Staff were very helpful and friendly, pool was on the small size with a section roped off for swimming lessons but clean. Room was very large however the sofa which doubles as a bed was disgusting with crumbs and Lego inside. The walls also had multiple dirty marks on. There wasn’t a good selection of toiletries which for a spa hotel was disappointing. Breakfast was good with a nice selection on offer. I would stay again"
