I'd booked again but I would use ear plugs to sleep. Unfortunately the traffic (trucks) made sleeping difficult. Otherwise we were very comfortable and happy in general.

Excellent facility I can tell it's cleaned and maintained daily. The bed was really good. Good sized bathroom & toilet. Table & Chairs also outside. I was very happy with my stay. I got to meet both the managers and both lovely people. Well worth staying. No road noise. The only noise was from the pub music across the road but only the music not the patrons.
