Sixth time visiting here, first time with the name change and its still just as good. Love the new neon sign outside. Staff were very friendly, check in was nice and quick at the self check in machines and the rooms are clean and spacious for the price.

Room was spotless, bed was comfy. Staff are lovely and helpful. The food is good and the settings are great. The only thing that stopped me marking a 5 was the fact to play darts & shuffleboard cost quite a bit. Darts are generally free to play in pubs but here was £25! Shame as it was raining so we would’ve spent some time in the bar playing games had it been cheaper.

Very good indeed.

A very relaxing and nice place to stay. The room and bathroom were spotless and the staff were all very professional and friendly. I have to make a special mention of Lizzie (the receptionist) who made an extra special effort to return some lost property to me.

This is a little gem of a hotel, while the rooms are on the smaller size they are well equipped and have everything you need (apart from a fridge). Staff are friendly and keen to help, bar area is brilliant with the table top interactive game, shuffle board, interactive darts and ps5’s. Had the duck pizza which was a winner. Didn’t use the spa due to the cost but hopefully will on our next visit. Breakfast was nice and fresh, good coffee and a lovely view of the lake. All in all this is a nice hotel. Highly recommended.

Good location

The breakfast room is beautiful - right on the lake-side. There was building work going on, so trying to work from the room was a little frustrating due to the noise. I also found a bug in my room. But the bed was comfortable and the shower was good. Room service choice was also really good. Good value for money.
