    We had an 'accessible' room which was spacious and well equipped. The premium rooms were much smaller and would have felt a bit cramped. Nice swimming pool but, typically, the hot tub and the steam room weren't operational. Breakfast was good value and excellent quality. Staff were helpful and very friendly. Some annoying noise at night - people talking in corridor, dog yapping, coach idling outside at 7.15am - but that's human beings for you.

    I can not praise this place high enough. The staff were really lovely. I’d easily say the best off all the holiday inns that I’ve stayed around the country. They are very grounded, genuine, helpful and just very lovely. From being given a coin for the spa locker before I even asked, to storing my lunch for work next day in their fridge to offering me free coffee in the morning as I was leaving, they went above and beyond. Pls don’t change!
