Great staff and very enjoyable stay

The room was very comfortable and we enjoyed the leisure facilities which are well run. We especially liked the restaurant due to great staff, especially Joy! The bar was great too, lovely wine and a brilliant singer as an extra treat on Saturday night.

Great to be back.

At least the third time we have stayed here, though it must be 7 or 8 year’s since our last visit. Friday afternoon/evening in the reception area very busy with an event that had been rearranged from the previous weekend. Restaurant very busy, but calm and very competent service. Friday evening noise in the corridor where our room was situated, was bordering on the extreme, Saturday evening, the complete opposite. Restaurant food good value and reasonable menu. Breakfast was tasty and again well worth it. Overall a very enjoyable experience and we didn’t even mention the swimming pool or spa!!!
