Country sojourn.

Had a great stay at Dooleys Capella. Staff were attentive, professional and welcoming. The neals were of a high standard and value for money. There were a wide variety of meals on offer including daily blackboard specials. The rooms were quite, spacious and clean. A short walk to the dining room or room service if u prefer. Being situated at the southern end of town, a moderate walk to explore the railway station and historical village was manageable. Would definitely book again.

Cleaning really needs to be improve. Quite new, so air cons are great, though the fans are right where the chairs and tables are so it’s not comfortable sitting outside. Hot water and shower are fantastic (when cleaned properly) Easy parking right out your door. Pool lovely and clean, food in the pub was good, wide selection. Super friendly staff.

The meals were amazing and huge!!! The only downside was the pullout bed for my daught was dirty and there was no linen to make the bed with. My two daughters ended up sleeping top to toe in the one bed! The kids were very happy with the lovely clean pool though!!
