Room was spacious and clean with everything you need. It was a bit hot in the room due to the weather but a fan was provided. All the staff were really friendly and helpful. Breakfast was very good with plenty of choice. Bar/restaurant was very nice but was let down by slow service on the evening in part due to a lot of the guest coming in all together. Although there is on site parking this is very limited and you may need to park overnight in the public parking area at an additional cost.

Hotel rooms fab and a great location Food was average re dinner. Breakfast was poor. Bacon wet and under cooked and black pudding was hard and like an ice hockey puck. Staff and management pleasant and helped if you needed it. Limited parking but other parking available local to the hotel.
